After yet another search of the forums, this time I think I struck gold: I found this tidbit...

Gofer new renggli: 'magritte3';
package: 'Magritte-Model';
package: 'Magritte-Pharo-Model';
package: 'Magritte-Seaside';
package: 'Magritte-Pharo-Seaside';
package: 'Magritte-Morph';
package: 'Magritte-Tests-Model';
package: 'Magritte-Tests-Pharo-Model';
load.

Doing that, it looks like there is sanity in the asComponent method. I am testing it now. (It as a March posting...)
