If you implemented that, then how do you feel about the inability of 
symbols "f" "s" "p" to be used as default values?

How do you determine that something like that is Pd's fault?... by 
opposition to being an improvement in design compared to Max/FTS. I bet 
that in your absence I could've found a bunch of people who would've 
thought that this is intentional... perhaps including me.
