smalltalk mode in gst3.0.2 break old syntax

Paolo:
It looks like the emacs smalltalk-mode in gst 3.0.2 make writing smalltalk
program in the old syntax very hard: templates are all new syntax, indention
doesn't work right, and I can even type:
Transcript nextPutAll: 'hello'!
(the ! will not appear?)
Introduce new syntax is one thing but forcing the new syntax down the throat
is kind of hash?
Can we have a customizable variable in emacs to toggle between old and new
syntax?

This must be a bug.  The ! is overridden to go past the final ']' of a
method but it should have this function only inside a new-syntax template.

Yes, it's possible though it's not very high in the todo list. :-)
