I think your original conception wasn't too far off the mark. But I
think what you've run into is the fact that if you're issuing a
dispatch command in a frontscript is doesn't have a selected object to
rain down to. If you dispatch to the target then I think you'll have
what you were after. The dispatch, send, and call commands can subvert
the normal message path, and I believe you're seeing a side effect of
that.
