Hmmm... I am using a Etoys-Dev-4.1 image for reference, and #testAll does
run successfully in that image.

Sorry for asking a really dumb question, but I actually don't know if
SyntaxMorph plays an important role in Etoys? Or is it just a leftover
artifact of some earlier experiment?

>From the point of view of an Etoys user, if SyntaxMorph is something
that should work then we should import the missing methods and update
them as needed. But if it is just a leftover curiousity that does not
matter to the kids who actually use Etoys, then we can ignore it or
delete it or deprecate it. Unfortunately I don't know Etoys very well,
so I have to ask.
