[BUG]FileList2 postOpen shows symptom of poor #changed: api

when looking at the FileList2>postOpen method I was upset to see the
very ugly generation of the parameter to the #changed: message. I
believe I swore something about people not knowing about
#changed:with:. Then I checked and discovered that Squeak is lacking
this protocol. I suspect that a number of places would benefit from it.
See any ancient Smalltalk image for details.
