When does a Stack Actually Die in the IDE???

That's what I would expect after reading Rev Dictionary:

 >>
The long id of an object includes information about its owner (and 
about the owner of that object, and so forth). For example, suppose a 
stack named “My Stack” contains a card whose ID is 11. This card has a 
group whose ID is 28, which in turn contains a button whose ID is 34. 
The card also has a card field whose ID is 46. If "My Stack" is a main 
stack and it’s in a file whose path is “/Drive/Folder/Stack.rev”, the 
long IDs of these objects look like this:
	• The stack: stack "/Drive/Folder/Stack.rev"
<<

Note that it is the stack's fileName, not short name, that is returned.
