William -

This could be.  The ObjectViewer is very nasty -- no superclass, wanton use of become, etc.  I did it one day when I was just feeling feisty.  I'll look it over and either remove it or fix it.

I'd appreciate any off-line info about how you crashed it and what you were trying to do.

Thanks
