No, lurking in the background has been this desire to feed events, 
mmm heck even say some Smalltalk code to compile and execute! from 
the VM via the event loop. I'm sure I recall the exobox folks having 
something in a VM like that?

Thus when you do a shutdown, you could get squeak to prompt you to 
quit, or save and quit. Versus a non-termination, or termination 
no-save depending on the type of shutdown request.
