your change set contains the class EtoysProject with
EtoysProject selectors
#(#finalEnterActions: #restoreGlobalPreferences #saveGlobalPreferences
#initializeProjectPreferences #configureOnFirstEntry
#finalExitActions:)
For complete configuration of a EtoysProject it might be necessary to do
PasteUpMorph subclass: EtoysPasteUpMorph
as well. http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/6461
Then Etoys related methods may be pushed down to EtoysPasteUpMorph.
And probably an Etoys specific subclass of WorldMenu would be fine as well
http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/6461
there is a test project [2] and some more information about adaptions
needed because of the UI changes in the thread 'Etoys in 2017?' - UI
preferences [3]. And it would be good to have Etoys methods /
configuration separate [4].
I suggest that you start go ahead and start implementing this while
using a test Etoys project dropped onto the desktop.

"I think it would be great if both Etoys and Scratch were easily
loadable and unloadable in trunk."
