Craig,

>> The message has to go somewhere.   How about a backScript?

No, a backScript didn't do the trick.  I brought up the message watcher and unless the mouse is within the modal dialog, no message is sent – to anything!  I don't think there is a way to scroll a stack when a modal dialog is open.  Bummer.
