Not really, but I'm still not sure what effect you're trying to achieve...
if you're in stack A, push the current card, open stack "B" with "go" (which
puts "B" on top of "A") and then pop the card, you go back to stack "A",
with stack "B" behind "A". Is this what you're trying to accomplish? The
appearance of a stack opening *behind* another stack?
