Maybe it was easier to define
reverse     ^self reversed
in a package of seaside with a category *Seaside-Pharo ? that's maybe what Dale did ?
No, he changed the code to call #reversed. This however broke Seaside for all other platforms that properly implement the ANSI standard. Having a Seaside specific implementation would be feasible, but then we have to call it #greaseReverse or something, otherwise it will dirty the system package when loading. Even if the name is unfortunate, it doesn't make sense to break ANSI compatibility. This is the only thing we can trust on today for writing platform independent code.
