Jason,

You might want to look at the openInWindow method and its relatives
that I just posted in the pre-FreeCell changeset.  I was trying to 
use embedInWindow as a replacement for openInWorld on the Morph and
ran into a couple of surprises.  Embedding an AlignmentMorph is 
problematic since they may not know their extent until fullBounds is
sent.
