Comment(by dmoco):

 Replying to [comment:12 ScottWallace]:
 > Oh, and one other important thing.  It seems that after a "load as
 morph" the loaded object (at least in this case) has a nil parent pointer
 (This gives you some idea of how often the "load as morph" feature is used
 by users of the olpc-etoy system... you might be the only one.)
 >
 > Thus, the object itself, immediately after loadging, thinks that it is
 not "in the world", which leads to some bizarre behaviors.  We'll look in
 to this bug in due course, but for the time being, after loading a .morph
 file I recommend that you immediately pick up the resulting morph by its
 black halo handle, then drop it right back down on the desktop.  This will
 restore the hierarchy to health.

 Hmm, ok here. Double checked by both "load as morph" and D&D just to be
 sure and in both cases "owner" is correct.
