In my experience you can access properties of objects, and even create 
them, so long as you don't do anything that would require rendering the 
card, since the faceless engine won't be able to render.

For example, you should be able to say:

   get the text of fld 1 of cd 3 of stack "MyStack.rev"

   create button in stack "MyStack.rev"
   set the uMyProp of btn 1 of stack "MyStack.rev" to "Howdy"

But you cannot say:

   go cd 1 of stack "MyStack.rev"
