Ok, personally I haven't said what I think yet. :-)
I agree "Squeak" is as generic as "Smalltalk" - so no real improvement
there perhaps. "SqueakSession" is a tad technical IMHO. And if we are
putting all those things in there (to start with) then it will perhaps
even be misleading.

And regarding the "perhaps it should be split up" - my view is that let
us take things in steps. Sure, we are talking about a global here - so
potentially a lot of code will be touched. On the other hand it is just
a "search and replace"-thing.

So in short I think I vote for simply letting Stephane go ahead. :-)

Then later when we (perhaps) break it apart even more then we may have
to come up with some more specific names.

regards, Göran
