I purchased the available squeak books but had no luck.  They all show how to do a bunch of fancy graphic maneuvers but none showed how to create a dialog with controls.  (Granted, I didn't spend too much time with it.)  Having a number of business-like examples like modeless and modal dialogs, controls, grids, etc. would be really great.  This way people could easily start using Squeak at work.  A book, "Business applications with Squeak" is needed.

Not sure about what widget sets are you asking about, but Morphic Designer 
seems to be pretty cool for creating Squeak based GUI:
