Thanks for the heads-up.
What if the standalone is essentially a "splash" screen which calls a  
substack?  Would the custom props of the substack then be retained?   
Would the substack have to be a separate stack (in as far as the file  
system is concerned), or could it be packaged internally within the  
standalone?
