I think you've brought up an important consideration, Tiemo.  When Rev 
loads a stack file, it reads the entire stack file into memory, and 
custom properties come along for the ride.

On modern systems, a couple megs of images probably won't matter, but 
embedding a 6GB video would almost certainly exceed available RAM, and 
on some systems may even exceed swap space.
