[squeak-dev] HelpBrowser as note taker

I selected a bunch of code that seems to add the add/remove topic/book capabilities and it appears to function.

However, it is pretty annoyingly whiney -
"Are you sure you want to add this?"
"Do you really, really, want to change anything to do with this class?"
"Completely sure?
"Honest?"

And let's not get into the removal process.

I strongly suspect that the multiple checks were originally there for development certitude but I wonder if anyone has good arguments for multiple UI queries here? At first I thought perhaps it was that the ClassAPIHelpTopic was involved and some care was being taken to avoid deleting methods that had 'real' code in them.

I've dropped the work so far into the inbox as HelpSystem-Core-tpr.142.partial
