Actually, I spoke too soon...

During input processing, events are taken from the _current_ table, so
they will be run in the CALLed table, assuming that you are still _in_
the CALLed table.

SCREEN ends the CALL, so you are no longer in the called table while
the screen is being updated.

On the other hand, "POPUP UPDATE -" remains in the called table, and
events will be taken from there.
