i intended assert to be an object without overhead... but i also like
your generalisation.
the only problem i see is, that i'd like to switch off the runtime
overhead in performance mode and check the asserts only in debug mode,
which would be either a canvas property or a global property ...
(unfortunately this distinction doesn't really exist in pd)
