From the dictionary:

It would be nice to insert into the back of backScripts, but I don't think that is the simple 'insert' behavior. I think I checked this one time. Maybe I'm reading your paragraph wrong. My sentences seem to evolve and take on lives of their own during editing.
The sentence on order for stack libraries in the dictionary is confusing, so I'm not sure what it is saying about order.
