No, but that would be a nice idea to add (perhaps a "make SAR" 
button?).

You can make SAR's from ChangeSets by:

(SARChangeSetDumper on: 'ChangeSetName') fileOutAsZipNamed: 'My.sar'.

or 

(SARChangeSetDumper on: 'ChangeSetName' including: #(AnotherChangeSet 
YetAnotherChangeSet)) fileOutAsZipNamed: 'My.sar'.

and from PackageInfo (even if you don't have a subclass of 
PackageInfo) by:

SARPackageDumper fileOutPackageNamed: 'SARBuilder' as: 
'SARBuilder.2.sar'

If you have additional change sets and no subclass of PackageInfo, you 
currently have to do this with a more extensive script or manually.

However, I think it might be useful to make it easier to add change 
sets to the fileout. Thanks for mentioning it.
