I don't want to present a whole application environment to the user, I want
to disable everything not having to do with the task at hand.

Also, it gives people with more limited bandwidth connections the options
of downloading the entire thing, or a highly stripped version that is much
smaller. It certainly makes getting a "build environment" easy when asking
for contributions though!

Dolphin has a similar tool and is now open source, perhaps there is
something there worth investigating for Pharo.

I'll check out Phratch (also, Scat is an unfortunately named tool).
