Preopenstack confusion

Michael, et al:

You could use one global variable and one handler for all stacks that need
cleanup:

	on preOpenStack
		global openedStacks
		put openedStacks into stackList	-- I move globals to local
variables before list
					-- operations...posibly not needed
		put true into listMe
		get the id of the target
		repeat for each line l in stackList
			if it is not l then next repeat
			put false into listMe
			exit repeat
		end repeat
		if listMe then
			put it&return after openedStacks
			cleanMeUp -- generic call for clean up routines here
		EN
		otherPreopenLogic -- generic call for "every open" routines
here
	end preOpenStack
