yes, but thats a completely different user interaction. inlets on objects
are not buttons. Anyhow, thats not the question, as it is easily changed.
The question if it gets accepted in pd are the complicated details of
implementation.
miller suggested in graz how they could be implemented differently. He is
not happy with the way they  are implemented now because I had to change
the size of the inlet structure. So there is not too much
hope that they will be in Pd soon. Moving or not moving, yellow or green
background :(
