_I_ would find it usefull to just know what I have installed so far, but 
being able to do something interesting with installed package sure 
wouldn't hurt.

I haven't delved deeply enough into squeak to talk about enhancements, 
but I find usability enhancements much more important. Especially being 
abel to use the keyboard is important to me (you know, I have one of

their power station during the night ;-)
