Shout Workspace by Default

I want to have all Workspace instances actually be instances of its
subclass SHWorkspace. I'm not sure about which way is advisable. My
first thought was:

Workspace>>new
   ^ SHWorkspace new

SHWorkspace>>new
   ^ self basicNew initialize

This works but it doesn't feel right. Especially when I can get away with:

Workspace>>new
   ^ SHWorkspace basicNew initialize

You wisdom would be appreciated.

Oh, and isn't there something wrong with:

Behavior>>new
   ^ self basicNew initialize

Shouldn't it have a yourself? Otherwise it relies on initialize
answering with self and it would seem often the implicit self. Perhaps
this is intended for some reason?

Thanks,
Zulq.

Try this: YourClass>>initialize ^nil

Yes, Behavior doesn't want to take over the responsibility for what is  
returned by your #initialize method, so it passes garbage-in garbage-out.

If in need, you can always ask for (YourClass basicNew initialize;  
yourself).
