Oh, sorry, I had created it by accident in past (before I realized that PackageInfo >> #named: does not only perform a lookup, but also constructs a package if necessary).

<p><br>
</p>
<p>> <span style="font-size: 12pt;">In addition to what I wrote, maybe take a look at PackagePaneBrowser.</span></p>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Yes, I already prepared an extension of its package menu, too, it's still waiting in my image :)</div>
<p></p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>> > <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Still, what I would like to make possible with this feature is to browse all extensions of Tools-Inspector, for example -- which is not an extra package, but only a system category. Personally, I would find this quite useful
in certain situations.</span></p>
<div>> What exactly do you want to see? List all extension methods on classes in the selected category? Or find all extension methods outside of the selected category?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The latter.</div>
<div>For example, the Tools package defines a lot of extension methods over the whole system.</div>
<div>There are many '*Tools-Inspector' extension categories, many '*Tools-Debugger' extension categories and so on ...</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span>[self systemNavigation browseAllExtensionsOf: Inspector <u>package</u>] will bring up all extensions to the Tools package, which is fine.</span><br>

<div>What exactly do you want to see? List all extension methods on classes in the selected category? Or find all extension methods outside of the selected category? The latter does not make sense without a package. The former does not match the code you posted,
as far as I understand it. </div>

<p><span>Should we maybe just create a temporary package for this use case, on the fly when #<span>allExtensionsOfSystemCategory: is called? Or would this be _too_ hacky? ^^</span></span></p>

<div>In both of the cases above, I think it does not make sense to create a temporary package. The package is Tools, so it does not make sense to search for extensions provided by Tools-Inspector, does it? To find extension methods on classes in Tools-Inspector,
you don't need a package.</div>
