I can't come up with a simple way of doing this. (Which certainly doesn't mean
it's not possible! -- I'm a newbie myself. ) Logic suggests that there are
going to be two factors governing the order of events: which form appears
first in the code, and which takes the longest to load/execute. While it might
be possible to do something with BlockContext (look at scheduling and
controlling) nothing really jumps out and bites if you want the events
together. You might need to look at combining the two into a composite morph
and loading that. 

Any ideas, anyone?
