I have to agree here. It seems to me that the various forks function as
incubators for different projects and experiments that wouldn't fly in
the other forks. After all, don't some of these forks exist entirely
because the people working on them wanted to try stuff that wouldn't be
allowed or workable in the mainline Squeak distribution? And yet, some
of those things have spread, like Cuis text handling.
