I'm glad you did :) .

I think the idea has potential. I've found it was very easy to build
quite powerful mini applications. But I know it is not what you are
looking for, as my approach here is focused on data based browsing
Morphs; that's not generic enough.

I like this one: This is a fully functional Cuis preferences editor. I
don't know if you tried it:

(QuickList on: Preferences preferencesDictionary values )
	printer: [:pref | pref name];
	actions: {
		'Inspect' -> #inspect.
		'Set' -> [:pref | self request: (pref name, ' (', pref preferenceValue
asString, ')') do: [:str | pref preferenceValue: (Compiler evaluate:
str) ]]};
	detail: [:pref | String streamContents: [:s |
			s nextPutAll: pref preferenceValue printString;
				newLine; newLine;
			 	nextPutAll: pref helpString]];
	filter: true;
	openTitled: 'Preferences'.

Yes. I hope to review them some day, document them and ship them
properly it there are valuable widgets there.
