strange nested groups behaviour

So if I fix your code to work (as above), and use a button with the 
short name set to an existing property, it'll output the property. 
However, that is completely expected, as using a string that results in 
a property will give you the property.

Coincidentally, using the above script with a button that is not a 
property, will just give you an error. So your code is only useful if 
the button is expected to be named as a property to begin with, and 
your code would be faulty if that is not the sole purpose of it.

The commented line 'do "put the" && quote & "existingProperty" & quote' 
  should in my opinion result in an error, but puts the actual text 
entered. However, RunRev will argue that this is a design decision, not 
a bug (At least i'd guess they would).

To verify, enter 'put the "something"' into the message box (no single 
quotes).
