[comp.sys.mac.hypercard] Problems with backgrounds? How about a new feature...

How many times have you copied a card, pasted a card, created a new card, 
etc., only to find that you do not have the right background (or worse yet --
you created a new background)?

Would it be possible to add a feature to the "Get Card Info" dialog to allow
the person to CHANGE the background number/name?  A text box would be good
enough, but a pop-up menu of backgrounds available would be nice.

I was just thinking about how easy this would make it to change backgrounds on
any card easily (although I suppose this could leave a 'stranded' background
that did not belong to any card -- maybe someone can think of times when this
could be helpful).
