ScriptLoader will certainly use gofer to install packages instead of  
installer

Yes.
Because in pharo we do not use anything else besides on changeset to  
kick in the load.

After discussion at  Esug between dale, lukas and me listening :)
it seems that Metacello will use Gofer to load packages.

Now I think that you should give a try to Gofer and report what is  
missing
or not.
I have some behvaior I would really like to have (that are specific to  
ScriptLoader like
tell me which packages have changed since a given marked period).
