"open stack <stackname>" works. If it's not working there something else is in play.
Quick verification:
1. Create a stack, name it "AAA"
2. Create a bunch of other stacks, so "AAA" is behind them
3. Run this in the Message Box:
open stack "AAA"
Result: "AAA" comes to the front of all stack windows
