Sometimes I wonder if Packages should not be part of the Smalltalk globals 
namespace…

e.g. packages could have a nice reflective API:

MyPackage unload.

and even an API for using… e.g. a Compiler has a very tiny surface API:

OpalCompiler compile: ‘….’

(but I do not really like nested classes, which is what people will now 
suggest…)
