Nope. See my answer to Esteban. The idea is that the dialect specific
implementation of Grease,
Grease-Pharo-Core/Grease-VW-Core/Grease-VaST-Core/Grease-GemStone-Core
would provide a class named GRDynamicVariable. The implementation
would be either process environment based, or dynamic variable based,
or notification based, whatever works best on this dialect. That way
users can simply subclass GRDynamicVariable and automatically get the
best possible behaviour on the dialect they are running on without
having to change their code.
