Sheesh! Was I that obvious about it? I was trying not to be...

No, unfortunately I don't think it would. I need to be able to load
scripts from disk files place them into the message hierarchy in such
a way that they are sort of peers with the substack scripts. What I'm
looking at for this case is not just polymorphism, but being able to
overload functions whose default instance is in my mainstack and whose
overloaded instance is in a separate (not sub-) stack. It's working
well enough now that I should be able to demonstrate it for you next
week at the show.
