Categorise method defaults?

When using Pharo 4.0 - if I create a new class (subclass of Object) and then create a new class method for constructing that instance - when I try to classify the method why is the list of possibilities empty?

In old versions of squeak I recall there was a list of possibilities already in the image to choose from? I was expecting “instance creation” to be there already for me?

Am i missing something?

Nope. You're not missing anything. And it's been the same in Pharo 3
and 2 (AFAIR).

This "categorization" issue was discussed before, with pointers to
"category suggestion algorithms", but nothing has happened.

It is just a glitch.
I worked on a better categoriser and it requires one or two days of
polishing to integrate it.
If you want to help just ask.
