It would be nice to replace the carb entirely just to see what happens. If it's the exact same problem (stalls at idle when warm), that's a big clue.
Then again, I don't know if the replacement carb has problems of its own. I'd really need to take a carb from a good working bike to be sure.
But as a test, I suppose it can't hurt. So I started prepping the "C" carb (Viola's original) for duty. Tested that the floats worked and then she was water-tight. All in all, she looks to be in good shape. The only problem I found is that due to heavy corrosion on the back threads, the throttle screw doesn't want to screw all the way in. But it does go in far enough to just barely lift the slide. So maybe that's enough.
Testing for leaks.
Testing to make sure the floats aren't leaking.
