Doesn't it work for every abstraction that is in your path for you? In
my tests, it did. I think it is a resonable restriction to let nqpoly4
only create objects that are known to Pd this way.

Another interesting change might be to make it work together with
[poly]'s way of voice allocation. Or maybe that's already possible? I
didn't check it out so far.

And are 4 arguments enough? It would be trivial to add more, in case
this is needed.

Then the second inlet of nqwrap4.pd actually isn't needed, one could
send a loadbang-message to the "pd-$0-poly"-receiver instead, but I
kept the inlet for backwards compatibility.

Ciao
