The last remaining dependency is:

LanguageEnvironment class >> startUp
    self clearDefault.
    Clipboard startUp.
    HandMorph startUp.

I am stumped as to how to preserve this behaviour and sever the
dependency. Smalltalk at: #HandMorph is _not_ a solution. It makes
things worse because you hide the dependency, but it's still there,
ready to bite you at a random moment.

Inlining the above into Language class >> #startUp's call sites
seems... undesirable.

Perhaps a startup registry, and HandMorph's and Clipboard's
#initialize would say something like LanguageEnvironment
registerForStartup: self ?

Thoughts?
