At the risk of over-simplifying things, getting them wrong, and missing the point: I just ran up a stack "QUESTION.rev" (and its now on revOnline under 'Richmond'); it has 2 substacks; one is a 'normal' substack, and one is set up as an answer dialogue. The answer dialogue substack pops up

Whoa, I didn't know you were calling from a modal window. Modals are supposed to be... well.. modal and as such don't really attach to any stack. I put together a custom answer or ask dialog and used the 'sheet stack' command. That should work, but it didn't; the custom sheeted stack didn't work
