No.  It is a stack.  But it has a limitless bottom.  I.e. 'set term pop' 
on an empty stack yields the default terminal, simply because the 
terminal cannot be set to "NULL".

And before we go ahead adding such intruders into the udv namespace, I 
think we should set a reserved prefix immediately.  So far, we've only 
had FIT_* names reserved for extensions to fit (and no string vars among 
those).
