If you go to Standalone settings -> Stacks, there is a checkbox
labelled "Move substacks into individual files". This saves each
sub-stack into it's own .rev file with only the mainStack being part
of the application file. Then all stacks apart from the mainStack are
writable.

On Mac OS X, this is neat as everything is hidden inside the
application bundle. On Windows & Linux I'm not sure what happens.
