Saving script-only stacks

I'm undecided about how to classify this behavior. I have LC prefs set 
to always save stacks in their original stackfile format. That mostly 
works transparently except in the case of script-only stacks.

LC stores the original stackfile version as a custom property in the 
stack, and since script-only stacks don't have properties, every time I 
try to save one I get the warning dialog about how the minimum required 
version is LC 7.0, and do I really want to save it as LC 2.4. I assume 
since there's no property at all, the dialog is defaulting to the oldest 
version in its list.

It isn't a huge deal, but it does require me to click the "7.0" button 
on every save, which happens often. Should LC just assume that 
script-only stacks are always to be saved in 7.0 format?

What about adding the version to the "script" declaration at the top?

Or I could just live with it.
