substack question

you can set a mainstack stack (with a substack) as a substack of another 
mainstack
but you can't set a stack to be a substack of another substack. I tried, 
it wont work...

Workaround would be to make one central mainstack and keep your substacks 
all
as brothers instead of creating children of children (hope that's 
clear...). But you can
simulate children with some naming convention

eg:
mainstack a1
substacks
aa1 - virtual substack of a1
ab1 - virtual substack of a1
ab2 - virtual substack of ab1
etc... 

It will be simpler to work with - guaranteed and there should be better 
performance.

Logically speaking, A exists when the app opens. B is sometimes created,
sometimes not.

If B is created, sometimes C is created, sometimes not.

C must be a substack of B which is a substack of A.

So the order is required. If it is possible. If not I'll need to find some
work-around.
