Is there a tool in Squeak that would give the diff between two images? Atleast 
a replay tool that tracks all state changes and applies them to one image to 
generate another? AFAIK, Squeak only tracks changes to methods and not all 
state changes.

I crashed an image while trying to change the parent of a class. Luckily, I 
had a snapshot on disk and reapplied the changeset. But the snapshot had 
lingering instances of a class which the changeset tried to re-parent and the 
image crashed again :-(. The doIts I did to clean up the instances were not 
in the changeset.
