Do I understand right: When loading them as separate patches, you can
dynamically re-order the signal flow by using [tabsend~]/[tabreceive~]
(which you could with abstractions, too) _without_ adding latency?

And: When changing the symbol of [tabsend~] or [tabreceive~], is the
DSP graph re-calculated?
