I needed to have the first card of one of my stacks as the current card, while I do something from another stack (a utility stack). If I "go card 1 of stack <stackName>" then the stack <stackName> comes to the front, but I want to keep the utility stack as the topstack, so even following this by "go back" or some such looks messy on screen. Instead, I can do this:
