Nice. :)
We might want to think about Monticello and Code from time to time. At the moment, there is no feasible way to version real objects (morphs etc.) with it. [Which is not a limitation of MCZ files storing binary versions of MCMethodAddtions already in the snapshot.bin]
Edgar De Cleene has provided a working implementation that is worth review. The changes would need to be merged into trunk, but that should not be hard to do.
The MCZ with Edgar's changes is Monticello-edc.534.mcz in the repository http://www.squeaksource.com/Ladrillos.
Edgar also provided a video that shows how use this to load an MCZ with resources for a morphic puzzle, similar to the way this might otherwise be done with a SAR archive.

The original discussion of this was in the 'Updating SAR builder tool' thread on squeak-dev last August.

I tried this myself in a 5.0 image and it worked well. Unfortunately I didn't find the time to follow up by extracting the changes and putting them into the inbox, which I guess would be the best way to proceed if we have an interest in this approach.
