perhaps it is a speed question? using pharo4.0 (with polymath):
a:=DhbVector new: 50 random: 20.
b:=a copy asOrderedCollection�� .
Smalltalk garbageCollect .
[ b removeDuplicates]bench. "'47,004 per second'"
b:=a copy asArray.
Smalltalk garbageCollect .
[ b asSet asArray�� �� ]bench.�� "'27,249 per second'"

And I do not see why removeDuplicates is less ugly than asSet asArray.
Just that it is doing two passes.

Hi Volkert,
I just replaced
#removeDuplicates with
#asSet
(this should work now).

I think that it would be nice to have removeDuplicates. Because
sometimes you need to end up with ordered collection and then you need
to do something like `obj asSet asArray` and it is ugly.

(and replaced some deprecated on:send:to: calls (for Announcements) with
when:send:to:

in the latest version.
