Yes
A front script appears to be inserted into the message path before ( or
above ) any target. So it has a chance to handle any message that is sent
to any target.
I know this is common knowledge to the old timers here, but the details of
how it worked were opaque to me until this weekend :-)
The other tidbit that was really important for me to get is that *All*
messages have a target. This wasn't clear to me, because I was always
letting messages just drop down through the message path. So I didn't
think of them as having a target. but they do. Again, probably something
I should have figured out a long time ago.
