In experimenting to understand ROMondrianExample>>attachPointOn:
I broke into the execution as follows: "forEach: [:cls | self haltOnce."
now if I highlight and inspect 'view shape line' I get a ROLine.
but if I highlight and inspect 'view shape rectangle' I get a
ROMondrianViewBuilder rather than the expected something like ROBox.
This seems wrong that these are not consistent.

New subject: Roassal - view shape rectangle - view shape line - returned class
Good point. However, I do not have an easy way to fix this.
The problem is the following:
- The Mondrian DSL allows you to write "view shape line width: 5". In Roassal,
the method #width: is defined in the class ROLine. In that case, it is reasonable to have
"view shape line" that returns an ROLine.
- Mondrian allows "view shape rectangle withText:". I do not want to have the
method withText: in the class ROBox, so "view shape rectangle" cannot return a
ROBox.
Cheers,
Alexandre

On some point, we will introduce a ShapeSelector that will be returned by "view
shape"
But indeed, you are making a good point.

Reasonable but not consistent. I'd vote for consistency, but I don't know what
other considerations are important.
Just brainstorming an alternative... "view shape line" might return
ROMondrianViewBuilder, which would need to understand "width:" - but perhaps
then you could also use "view shape line rawShape width: 5" where rawShape
returned ROLine in this instance. I am assuming that the Mondrian compatibility only
needs to be one way.
- Mondrian allows "view shape rectangle
withText:". I do not want to have the method withText: in the class ROBox, so
"view shape rectangle" cannot return a ROBox.
