Not necessarily unreadable, but I always find the UIManager & co. very
confusing. There's a very recent discussion on part of it here
http://forum.world.st/Streams-and-FileDialog-in-Pharo-6-and-7-td5084352.html

And the combinations and variations of arguments is also a mess
https://gist.github.com/peteruhnak/8ac6667b8eb11daee71517d0172b7355 ...
question:title:, confirm:label:, edit:label: ... and the code is also a
mess with respect to default values.

If you want unreadable code, then look at SpecInterpreter which is
responsible for building all Spec ui... 139 lines of code and so far I've
probably spent an hour per every five lines of code trying to
comprehensively understand this...
