I have seen a similar pattern in Kent Beck book Smalltalk Patterns , but I was not sure this was a good way to go in this case .

So I thought that would not hurt to ask for a second opinion from a more experienced Pharo coder.

Yes I like/use this pattern a lot! I think I learned it from "A Mentoring
Course on Smalltalk"
