This is that kind of thinking that led me to invent [#many]. I looked at 
their matrix of toggle-like things and told myself I should make something 
similar, except it would have a much shorter list of properties, and a 
possibility to connect plugins (using an extra inlet and outlet) so that 
any special behaviour can be user-specified. And then I wanted a variable 
element-class, not just toggle. And thus it was born.

Apart from that, many things can be made using [#see]-[#mouse] with 
various graphics processing in GF/GEM/PDP. [#see] displays a video in a 
patch, and the video can be tiny, generated, and rendered on demand (it's 
actually a picture viewer). This is most useful for high-color, 
pixel-oriented data, or really complicated vector data, perhaps.
