This I would call a bug

[David Bovill]

Getting the text from a particular card? A background field on a  
particular card? That is you have a stack with several cards and a  
background shared by all the cards...

     put the long id of fld 1 of card 2 into someField
     put the text of someField
     answer the text of fld 1 of card 2

These should be the same - no? Well they are not - "the text of  
someField" returns the text of the current card (ie the one  
displayed) and not the text of the second card.
