Hide A Stack, But Not Hide A Stack?

Interesting.  I thought "start using" only enabled scripts, but apparently
objects from the library stack are also available.  And visibility of the
library stacks appears to be limited to the Application Browser (not in the
Windows menu or the openStacks).

@Mark Schonewille -- I've been down the "rev" prefix path before and found
it problematic for editing, but that might be the best option.

Thanks guys.
