Yes, it would work in general. In this case I have a backscript that 
will change whatever the group has already done, so it needs its own 
message. That's why I was looking at the openControl/preOpenControl 
message, which the backscript doesn't handle.

I think my setup is fairly unique; most of the suggestions posted here 
would work for most typical stacks.
