Diffing Monticello package against image contents

Esteban A. Maringolo
Is there a way to compare the contents of a Monticello package (mcz)
against the contents of the image *REGARDLESS* of the packaging?

It is... I want to compare methods and class definitions from a mcz,
that has a monolithic package (PostgresV3 in this case) against what I
have loaded in the image, which has different packages
(PostgresV3-Core, etc.).

As it is today, if I select PostgresV3.mcz and select the "Changes"
menu, it will mark everything as changed, because such package doesn't
exist in the image.

If PackageA contains a method ClassX>>#methodA, I want the contents of
such method to be compared to what I have in the image, no matter if
ClassX>>#methodA belongs to PackageB or PackageC.

Does such feature exist? Something like a chunks browser, but using a
Monticello package instead of a chunk file.

If you browse the monolithic package, you have it somewhere in
the image. You should be able to calculate a diff from there.

I know I'd could (It's Smalltalk after all). But I wanted to know
whether the "feature" was already available. By your answer I guess
it's not a feature yet.

Thank you!
