Hi Chris,

I don't think I will be making the call on whether my (and Ben's) 
LookEnhancements will go into 3.9. There was some interest in that topic a 
month ago or so, but it seems to have died down. I pretty much don't care if 
it isn't included since I will just keep maintaining the enhancements and 
applying to future editions of squeak as an add-on. I would certainly 
welcome the incorporation into Squeak, but then I might lose control over 
the enhancements if that happens. Anyways, if you are interested, I know the 
enhancements work in 3.9.

I'll look over your proposed enhancements and consider them for inclusion in 
the code. Thanks for your nice words and proposed enhancements!

Regards,

John
