Ohhh nice ... I once uploaded an MCM but was not able to delete it from
one of my projects since it was not deletable from the web interface.
Now the project is clean. Thanks for the crash ;)

BTW: Is'nt there a regular backup of the machine or ZIP of the SqS folder?

Yeah, that's because MCMs are not implementede polymorphic to MCZs.

Yes, but only MCZs that are persistent right after the commit. I don't
know why the MCM mechanism was implemented orthogonal?

No, for SqueakSource server developers.

At the time I added the MCM support, it was saved just like the rest  
of the meta data. MCZs were saved to disk immediately but became  
inaccessible on a crash. So there was not much incentive to do better  
than that.
