Works for me in 708.

It's still awkward to use, and fills up the Journal with useless  
files. Why does the Journal have to be involved anyway? Why can't  
there be a less intrusive way to open another activity? What actual  
harm could there be in instructing Sugar to launch an already  
installed activity as if we had clicked the activity icon?
