I don't know.

Not sure where I learned about it, maybe from poking around the Rev 
frontscripts.

To the best of my knowledge, there are only a very few tokens in use 
that aren't documented, mostly relating to debugging stuff -- off the 
top of my head:

  messageMessages
     This global property determines whether "messageHandled" and
     "messageNotHandled" messages are sent whenever a message is
     fired.

  messageHandled
     This message is sent when any other message has been sent and
     has encountered a handler for it.

  messageNotHandled
     This message is sent when any other message has been sent and
     has not encountered a handler for it.

  exectutionContexts
     Returns a list of handlers called which lead from original
     message to the current place where this is called.


These were added for internal use and because these are not documented 
they are highly subject to change.  For example, in its current form the 
executionContexts is not nearly as useful as it could be because it 
doesn't include params sent with the message.

I had submitted an enhancement request to BZ some months ago for that, 
but for some odd reason I can't find it in there now....
