I recorded a flash video demonstrating Gorm and the StepTalk palette:

Two comments on the palette:
a) the ScriptButton is really really aweful since it merges view and
controller - thats almost like Windows programming :-(
b) does the editor in the script inspector really need a save button?
Thats somehow inconsistent (and it doesn't display any indication
whether its currently "saved").
Wrt the script button I think the appropriate solution is to support
associations/bindings (don't know if Gorm already has this). I suppose
your idea is to avoid the requirement to create a full script object
for very small code sections.
As a developer you would create a "GSStepTalkAssociation" which
evaluates a given association string as a StepTalk script.
As the user you would drag a regular button (or any other object) to
the window. Then go to the "bindings" inspect and the "onclick"
binding. Select the "GSStepTalkAssociation" as the association type for
the binding and enter the relevant script in the binding field.
The nice thing with associations is that they can be of any type (KVC,
scripts, xpath expressions, whatever), not just Outlets or Actions,
also see:

Just a rough idea ;-)
