I'm just not clear on what we gain by doing so, rather than by continuing to make packages unloadable, and by settling on a mechanism to reload them on demand, while keeping reasonable safeguards in place to make sure they'll work with a particular release.

Well, not really. Morphic 3 is not part of Cuis, it is a separate 
project. Morphic 3 is experimental, Cuis is production quality.

I've commented about Cuis being MIT clean in another message (just 
minutes ago).

WRT asking SFC, I believe that if we need to ask SFC about doing this, 
then we'd also need to ask them about any code we add to Squeak, no 
matter how small. I see no difference. Given that Cuis is just a subset 
of Squeak with additions made only by me, taking any part of Cuis and 
loading it into Squeak, is just considering that to be a contribution of 
mine to Squeak. This has already been done with the anti aliased 
StrikeFonts (and the machinery to render them), the TextEditors, etc.
