slimming the image

I'm sure this has been addressed many times, but there is no good source
of documentation at the swiki. With the changes in 2.8 and 2.9a things
have probably changed enough that this question is worth revisiting in
the context of the 'ship it with squeak' discussion.

I would love to be able to ship a squeak image that had only morphic,
the necessary programming classes and the classes necessary for my
application. Is there a semi-magical method? Failing that, how do I go
about doing this systematically (that is without simply wiping out
classes sequentially and checking to see what fails.) Finally, compared
to the base image (say 2.8) - what are reasonable expectations for a
reduced image size (with morphic, without MVC (is this possible?), with
the network support, Scamper, Celeste, the morphic widgets and toolkit
classes but without the 3D stuff, Wonderland, speech, music and all
those nifty toys etc.)
