My immediate thoughts on this is that System Editor could be very useful
for this tool.
It is a standalone piece of code which models changes to the system, be
it adding, removing methods instvars.
When you have it populated you say #commit and it atomically loads the
changes in.
I also think that a populated SystemEditor instance would be capable of
generating its equivalent undo-SystemEditor, before committing.
Ok so it is new technology, but I think it could really give us what we
are looking for, without re-writing something with method definitions,
class definitions etc all over again.
