The only cRevLoadInfo property I find useful is "mode". I use it to
preconfigure my lcStackBorwser stack as a modeless when I make a production
build. I've found it works best as a modeless stack rather than a palette
and palette is the default stack style if none is specified.

I would gladly use the revxxx messages instead of a front script but many
of the messages I need to trp don't have a rev equivalent so rather than
complicate life by having some messages trpped in a front script and some
trapped by the revxxx mechanism, I chose to use a front script.
