Suppose I have a bug in my openCard or related.  Theoretically.  It 
might make navigation during development to fix the bug a big problem.  
I might turn off messages and fix the bug and turn it back on.  In 
general, I want to make changes to my stack without it trying to run.  
I might be doing this the wrong way.

There might be consequences in the IDE that I don't know about.  I am 
not sure, but it seems saving a stack with suspend message on is not a 
good thing.
