Ah thanks. I am actually looking around at all the different ways people do
this concept of "module/namespace" to see what the best possible solution
is. I would like something that is more advanced then just playing tricks
with the selectors and the tools, but not something that changes the
language substantially.
That is, I think the work you're doing is very good and interesting, but I'm
not yet convinced about locking smalltalk down to such a level. Perhaps
that is the way to go, we'll see, but one must keep in mind that there is a
slider bar: on one side is "user friendly-ness" and on the other side is
"security". The more secure you are, the less user friendly. The more user
friendly, the less secure. It is a tricky thing to balance properly, and
for the moment I consider the domain of the application developer, not the
language. But who knows, maybe you will change my mind. :)
