Hi Ezequiel,

Smalltalk and Cuis encourage appropriating the system to suit your needs.

But the main distribution of Cuis needs to keep a balance between 
personal preferences of users and overall system complexity. Otherwise 
Cuis would become the (theoretical set) union of all their users 
preferences, and this doesn't scale.

I suggest keeping this separated from the standard Cuis image, either as 
a package file or as a change set.

Thanks,
