[Newbies] Why do lengthy installations "shut down" Squeak?

Sat Feb 21 20:34:56 UTC 2009

Just wondering why, since Squeak has processes, when install something large
via the Universe Browser, etc... I can't do anything else in Squeak while it
is installing?  Is this by design?

It seems like it could just be a low priority background task and you could
keep working...
