unfinished. 
last year we made a lot of work on allowing pharo to be executed by command

now we need to release coral. AFAIK, no much stuff was needed, but Damien will

we want namespaces (bah, I want them). But no existing implementation has been 
satisfactory yet.
now, I know Camille is working a bit in that direction, but no idea when/if he 
will be able to provide code.
