Which one are you talking about? The one in 1.2? Or on Squeaksource?
There have been multiple efforts (GTMetaceller, MooseDevBrowser...) already to
try and see what we would like to do in a browser. But there are also some
performance issues with Metacello right now, which makes it impractical to
browser config. which Dale and Alex have started to tackle them.
Anyway, the latest effort (started during ESUG) is there: it is basically a
rewrite of what have been done in the tools above (with still some missing
parts).

Note, it requires Glamour and is more of a testbed than a fully-supported tool
for now.
