One addition I implemented for Nautilus is that one can run examples directly in the browser just by clicking on class side example methods icons.
This is cool!!! And... why stop there? I had implemented a while back "Send It" and "Inspect It" in Nautilus' method pane context menu (only appearing for unary class-side methods). I've found it very useful to be able to fire these methods without dropping into an editor. If there is interest, I will dig up the code.
The GT-Inspector's Meta tab allows you to send unary message just by clicking. I was thinking earlier that it should be possible to extend this even for messages with arguments by just asking for them.
Also, what's really cool about this is that it's a reminder that - oh yeah, a class is a living object like everything else. Of course the logical conclusion is a Self outliner or MathMorphs where you /only/ interact with objects in a way that respects and highlights their aliveness, but we gotta start somewhere ;)
