What did you have in mind?
VA Smalltalk v7.0 already has a number of features like that via its inclusion of VA Assist (like automatic & manual spelling correction, abbreviation expansion, popup senders & implementors, etc.).

Any chance he would like to port it to VAST?

Go for it!
Return to VA Smalltalk 7.0, 7.5 & 8.0
