I would suspect not as MVC is slated to be removed from Squeak Central release. I'm not sure when.
I'm not sure whether this statement is correct. Actually, I think, it's wrong. AFAIK, the default desktop is probably changed from MVC to morphic but there're no plans to remove MVC.
The last time this question came up a couple of months ago I went back and found Dan Ingalls's original post on the future of Squeak and confirmed that he said MVC was being removed. I think I posted an excerpt of it.
Unless I missed something since the last discussion, I guess that is still the plan.
I'm also pretty sure that this wouldn't be easy as it's deeply burried in all parts of Squeak - including Morphic :-)
If I remember correctly, during the last discussion Dan explained (something like) that the MVC event mechanism would remain but they still planned to remove the MVC GUI framework. Sorry, I can't give a better explanation.
He said anyone could then add the MVC GUI framework to the Squeak Central release, if they wanted it.
