Why is necessary to add new properties to a CompiledMethod just for  
the documentation?

To handle that documentation properties you would need a browser aware  
of that. So why just not use a global to hold the documentation:

SmalltalkDocumentation for: MyClass>>#method is: 'Hello world!'.

Then this special browser just need to access to  
SmalltalkDocumentation...
This solution could be ported easily to other smalltalks.
