ParcPlace Smalltalk has provided methods in its UI Building classes which are
called at specific points in the "lifetime" of an interface. These methods
have names like "preOpenWith:" "postOpenWith:", "preCloseWith:", and
"closeRequest". The idea of these services is to provide hooks to the
developer allowing them to better control the placement and L&F of their
interfaces. Is there something to learn here?
