Constants are your friend.
Class globals should not be assignable using the normal syntax. One should
be forced to code something like <(Smalltalk bindingAt: #LanguageEditor)
setValue: Morph new.> (for example)--if that's what you really want to do.
Such devices would make it much more unlikely that beginners would know the
necessary arcania to unsafely 'mess with the system' (that's a technical
term.)
