 From the docs:

Mode

1: editable window
The stack is open and displayed in an editable window. A stack has this 
mode
if its style is "topLevel" or if it was opened with the topLevel 
command.

Looks like the term "editable" is a bit misleading...
It has nothing to do with the fact WHERE the stack is running: 
Standalone of Rev IDE!

A simple "go stack xyz" will always open that stack as "toplevel" 
unless you did not set the
"style" of that stack to something else like "palette" or "modeless"...

So if i understand you correctly, you want that handler ONLY to be 
executed in
the standalone?

In that case you could use "the environment":

if the environment <> "development" then
   ### the stack is running NOT in the Rev IDE!
    ### do your stuff here
end if

Drop a line if that is not what you were looking for ;-)
