Stef, And you were ready to give up on Pharo... :) A lot of Squeak code looks like it was written w/o thought of exceptions. There is probably good reason for that, in that much of it comes from before the days of structured exception handling, weak collections, etc. In fairness, having a browser, or worse yet a debugger, quit over a bad receiver problem can turn ugly. By putting things in Object, those types of bugs would be largely avoided. I'm not saying it is a good way to work, but it is wide spread in Squeak.

May be not putting everything in Object would help.
