Designing and implementing user interfaces tends to be a lot of work, but
aside from that I so no reason that it could not be done.

One of the nice aspects of Squeak (often overlooked) is that it provides
a concept of "projects" in which different types of user interface
environments can be implemented. You can open a Morphic project or an
MVC project, and the system will look and feel quite different depending
which kind of project you are currently using. The concept can be extended
to other kinds of UI implementation, such as the one you are suggesting
here.

I am cross-posting to the squeak-dev list, which is probably a better
place to continue the discussion.
