Morphic/Scripting Qs: Text areas and colors

I have a couple of questions about Morphic and the scripting system as I
play further with SqueakPages:

- Is there a scrollable text area that I can drag onto a SqueakPages book
and have it work?  All the ones that I can find (e.g., PluggableTextMorph)
don't accept text on their own.  They expect the model to handle that.
Before I go building one, is there a scrollable simple-model text area
already defined somewhere that I haven't found?

- How does one figure out the color of something in order to tell a Player
to do something when it is over that that color?  Is there a way of getting
the color info or picking up the color for use in a scripting tool?

Thanks!
 Mark
