[PD-dev] canvas moveto

[Dan Wilcox]

That's the idea and I'd like to start with looking into porting Jonathan's work first. It would be nice to have a generic GUI layer so it would be easier to write GUIs and externals which would then work across flavors of Pd without relying directly on Tk drawing commands.

For instance, I'd like to be able to drop my custom CoreGraphics implementations of the Pd GUIs in PdParty and just receive draw commands I can build with CG instead and then send touch/click/key events into libpd. As it is now, I've basically reverse-engineered the GUI behaviors and communicate via send & receives.

Something to move toward.
