It would be nice if the "show result..." option in the menu would return
an object tile which you could then use in any way that you wanted,
including throwing it away (which is what I imagine now happens when you
click on "ok").

One thing that would be easy to do is to allow any object to become a
tile which then could be included in the code. The result could be
compiled into bytecodes with no problems, even in the cases when it
couldn't be expressed as Squeak text. So this change would result in a
small incompatibility, which might be contrary to your goals.
