You made a gorgeous domain model, the SM model, but the server code
cannot compile on closure images because some of the methods are too
long.  More than anything, SqueakMap needs a rewrite of the web-server
IMO.

Yes, the in-image tools are clunky and a bit fragile.  I hope myself
or someone will have time in 2013 to clean these things up and make
them rock-solid.
