> A part of the workspace threw an exception

Did this happen with the standard workspace as it was distributed? This typical smalltalk experience might be acceptable you. There is a chance though that your customers won't find it similarly enjoyable.

For one, this was Pharo Smalltalk; a fork of Squeak that's still in beta. For another if I was shipping an application to a customer I probably wouldn't ship it with the workspace, or any of the development tools really. I would also consider buying a license for a commercial Smalltalk if that was the case.

Pharo is still maturing, but I've encountered the occasional exception.

No more so then a customer seeing an exception in a program written in C++.
