Well, you could do what Pd does, and have a static datastructure 
pointer, with a list/tree/whatever that you can look through to find 
values associated with keys.  I think this is what the findbyclass stuff 
does internally, but you'd have to check the source to confirm and see 
how to use it (it's used in [value] and [table], and others too).
