Protocol browser problem?

Does anyone ever want to find a method from the set of methods all the
way up the hierarchy? The Lexicon model used to have buttons for this
("through Object", etc.). Does anyone know what happened to these or
if there is another way to do that search?

I use the "protocol browser" all the time for that. Press Cmd-P when a class is selected in the System Browser.

However, in Trunk it has lost its special row of buttons. Ah, that's what you mean. Yes, no idea where they went.

The "annotationPanes" setting does not seem to have an effect anymore either.

Looking in my Trunk image I can see Lexicon>>addSpecialButtonsTo:with:
defining buttons with names like 'Only through Foo'. This selector's
also not called anywhere, hence the buttons not showing up.

But now custom buttons (like Debugger's restart/into/over button) are
specified in a Browser's #customButtonsSpec. Lexicon has one of these,
defining buttons like 'tiles', 'vars', 'follow', 'find'. I don't think
those are what Chris is talking about.

Does anyone have a screenshot of what Protocol Browser SHOULD look like?
Are these buttons supposed to be part of the lower CodeHolder?

I'll have a bash at fixing the problem, once I know what the solution
looks like.
