I don't think it would be trivial, because storing lists of lists in
[list] is not directly possible, [list] just stores lists of atoms. A
buffer for atoms is in [list]-abs with [list-lastx] formerly known as
[last-x].

But if you have an idea how to realize a list-fifo with [list], I'd be
happy to take it.

For a general approach, also PDContainer comes to mind.

Ciao
