We've had that feature for years, but our method is #echo ... I think that's a better method name.
We also have #echo: anObject, which appends anObject's echo string to the receiver, separated with a space. You can write...
#(a b c) echo: 123
...instead of...
(#(a b c) printString, 123 printString) echo.
And the #cr is sent before the output string, so it's always on a new line.
