On the topic of minor message related improvements, I hope it's ok to chime
in here, and I apologize if this has been hashed to death already and there
are good reasons for the current state..

I'm doing a lot of making messages out of other objects to send to Scheme
for Pd, and one thing I use all the time in Max is the right hand inlet for
message boxes as a way to set the contents of a message. I'm curious
whether there has been thought about adding that to Pd message boxes. It's
a small thing, but very handy for the kind of patches I wind up making.

thanks!
