Thanks, I made a plugin based on this idea:

https://github.com/chr15m/pd-push-and-hold

Install push-and-hold-plugin.tcl into your externals path so that it's 
loaded at startup. Then you can use the push-and-hold object to connect 
up a GUI object.

I uploaded it with deken so hopefully it will be available tomorrow.

Cheers,

Chris.
