Wow. That is... impressive. There's a lot of stuff there that's not
applicable to Squeak, but also some good ideas we could adapt.

Terminating extraneous processes before doing the unload, for example. And
figuring out the unload order based on dependencies. (Although I've found
that unloading packages from a Trunk image in alphabetical order works
fine. The only exception is that I unload MonticelloForTraits last, so as
not to break trait-unloading.)

I don't really grok his UserManager hacks, though, or why he removes a
bunch of methods before getting into the package unloading.

Nice find.
