The last time this question came up a couple of months ago I went back and
found Dan Ingalls's original post on the future of Squeak and confirmed that
he said MVC was being removed.  I think I posted an excerpt of it.

Unless I missed something since the last discussion, I guess that is still
the plan.

If I remember correctly, during the last discussion Dan explained (something
like) that the MVC event mechanism would remain but they still planned to
remove the MVC GUI framework.  Sorry, I can't give a better explanation.

He said anyone could then add the MVC GUI framework to the Squeak Central
release, if they wanted it.
