It doesn't really fit our "backport bug fixes only" policy. When I backported the completion stuff because it was too cool not to, it was a week-long hassle chasing collateral bugs. But what I've been doing for these types of things is merging into the released version, saving the packages online, and customizing my own images with them. It's been working pretty well since the released versions don't change very much.

Good news.

If by default on Windows, it would be another default than pharo\ it would be great as it would be nicer with zeroconf fetching pharo-ui and pharo (headless)

Are those changes going to find their way in Pharo 2.0?

There are two new flags:
1. --no-default-preferences = don't load from any of the default locations
2. --preference-file [/full/path/to/file.st] = load this one

They are independent, so there are four options now:
