Thank you all for the answers! :)

It seems that this works sometimes, and sometimes not, on the same
operation. Depending on how long I let the operation run before I hit
Alt-. :)

Actually both of this works in Pharo I have installed... It was a
little confusing to have 2 deep copy methods :) But thanks for
clarification.

I can understand why this doesn't work... I played a little with this
and managed to make this work, but then the array has to loose its
self evaluating aspect... And it probably broke everything else :-D
But it was useful exercise :)

It seems that they are supported after all, just the operation set on
them is limited... :)
Thank you again,
