if the dialog could inform the user as to the filename of the stack which is about to be opened, the filename of the stack currently in memory (or “not yet saved"), and whether the current stack has unsaved changes. This would make it clearer what the consequences are in each of the options.
It seems to me in Sean’s case the stack being loaded was not the stack one might expect (ie was it attempting to reload the the original or the renamed stack?)
