It's very much on topic because:
a) I think the tools should provide clean examples of how UI's 'should' be  
developed with wxSqueak
b) They provide a good basis for a ToolBuilder port, something still on my  
todo list.
(the only drawback is that I think the classes should get prefixed names,  
they stand a reasonable chance of conflicting as they are).

+1. The juggling of integers disturbed me as well, but not enough yet to  
build a general solution for it...

I'll try to load our stuff into a 0.4 image ASAP...
