Tweak allows this (at least the Croquet version of Tweak).  In the  
Tweak-Hacks package, you find the method:

, anObject
	^ self copyReplaceFrom: self size + 1
		  to: self size
		  with: anObject asString

The nice thing is that it doesn't just work for characters.  You can  
append *anything* to a string.

I've found this to be very handy, and haven't run into any subtle  
bugs/problems as a result.  However, my primary use of the construct  
is for logging, which isn't a very demanding application.
