While browsing at referencer of FileDoesNotExistException, I discovered the following pattern that is used in many different places. I find this pretty ugly:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
        file := [fd readOnlyFileNamed: keysFileName]
                        on: FileDoesNotExistException do:[:ex| nil].
        file ifNil:[^self]. "no keys file"
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

The use of exception is completely outwitted.

I would rather write:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
        [file := fd readOnlyFileNamed: keysFileName]
                        on: FileDoesNotExistException do: [:ex| ^ self].
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

If some of you agree, I will add an issue and fix where this occurs (e.g., CompiledMethod>>timeStamp, FileDirectory class>>retrieveMIMEDocument:, FileUrl>>retrieveContents, ResourceManager class>>loadResource: urlString, fromCacheFileNamed: fileName in: dir, ResourceManager class>>lookupCachedResource: cachedUrlString ifPresentDo: streamBlock, SecurityManager>>loadSecurityKeys)

Cheers,
Alexandre
