I'm not sure, if the fllowing idea would be A Good Thing. But I, too, was
bitten by crammed gui objects with show-on-parent, until I discovered, that
I had to change the size of the parent graph. 

My idea is now: Couldn't the parent graph automatically take at least the
size of the biggest graph in the subpatch/abstraction as default? This way
one could put all sliders and stuff on top of a my_canvas object in the
subpatch, that is scaled so that it takes up enough space.


I have absolutly no idea how hard this would be to implement, so it's not
even a feature wish, just an idea...
