There may or may not be multiples, but I was responding to why we'd want 
same-named controls in the stack. If we were able to assign icons by 
image name, we could only have one image of that name to be sure of an 
accurate ID.

I used to use same-named buttons on a card actually, but that was a 
HyperCard holdover. I use labels or properties now.
