[squeak-dev] OrderedSet

Hi Levente,

I like that idea! Performance is a non-issue for my use case. I don't even have the need to remove elements. 

Are there any objections to include OrderedSet as a trivial subclass of OrderedDictionary to Squeak?

I have looked at the list implementation used in LRUCache. I love the terseness of the code. I wonder why it is not called CircularDoublyLinkedList to make it easier to find for other uses.
