Initial Comment:
This patch fixes bug #1190023 so that you can change the value to the right inlet to be a float or symbol message regardless of the original argument to the object.

It also allows symbol and float args to be mixed.  In my own experience this is of marginal value in real-world patches, but it is important in teaching, to make sure that students don't run into nearly incomprehensible behavior when they experiment with mixed arg types.
