(That's all fine & dandy, but I actually have some issues with whether DeltaModules will be able to handle purely additive class extensions in such a way that, e.g. the non-core Morph methods could be split off into different DeltaModules which don't interfere with each other, but could still all be loaded at the same time as part of a standard Squeak release. But I need to look into it further, and it should probably be the topic of a separate message...)
In fact, that is one of the things the system definitely handles at this point. There are specific tests for method extensions-adding, removing, and changing methods. So that could in principle be done now. The problem is that there is no good integration for redirecting interactive changes into DeltaModules yet (like capturing changes).
If the integration is good or not doesn't bother me too much at the moment. I would just like to now how to redirect changes into DeltaModules associated with my own newly created module. (see another thread).
