The interactive stack will be activated pressing cursor up, same as the 50g. That will select the first item in the stack, then up/down cursors will move to other items. A few things I think would be nice to have are for example:

* Holding a shift would "grab" the current item, then moving up/down (holding shift) would drag the item, and releasing the shift would leave it at the new position.
* Holding the same shift, the right key should send the current item down to level 1, and the left key should send it up to the last occupied stack level.
* Perhaps the other shift could do the same, but leaving a copy of the object at the original position, so up/down would leave a new copy at the position where the shift key is lifted, and left/right would make a new copy at the top/bottom of the stack respectively (so the right key would become like PICK).

Any other ideas that can be done in the interactive stack?

These all sound like good ideas, I like 'em. Item 1 would be used a lot; the others, not too often, however they save a lot of keystrokes over other options, so worth having. The other more commonly needed possibility is some way to do item 1 via copy instead of moving.

Good suggestions. Thanks.
