I've noticed an unexpected behavior in HC 2.0v2 which can be simply 
reproduced: Create a new stack with 3 cards of the same background; 
create the background script:
on deleteCard
  go prior card
end deleteCard
And note that cards cannot be deleted. I suppose it might be a feature 
if you want to work hard to keep from deleting cards, but it plays hell 
when you want to avoid HC's normal practice of opening the next card 
after a delete. (At least 2.0 now at least sends the open card message 
in that instance!)  I have a need to control the card that appears after 
a delete, and discovered this behavior only when a go card id foo failed 
because foo happened to be the card prior to the target of the delete 
card menu command.
  Anybody else seen it?  Anybody got a fix or workaround?
