The comprehensive solution is to duplicate the changed: method in Object, adding a parameter as follows:
changed: changeType with: parameter
self dependents do:
[:aDependent | aDependent update: changeType with: parameter]
and you should add a null response for update:with: in Object as well.
Another approach is to save the extra parameter in the changed object, as in
o fooParameter: parameter.
o changed: #foo.
and then in the view's update: method, you do something like
changeType == #foo ifTrue:
[parameter := model fooParameter.
