Front Scripts

I read the dictionary entry as meaning that the last script inserted into
the front scripts will be executed before the first one, so the message
path starts at the last script inserted then prgresses through any others
until the first one inserted.

I don;t think any of this will be a problem for me.  I'm grabbing certain
messages about objects being created or deleted, processing them in a way
that doesn;t touch the object in any way, then passing the message on.
