These points are issues in Pd that vessel/lua~ by Graham Wakefiled tries
to solve in a way, where "in a way" means embedding Lua as a scripting
language for DSP inside of a Pd/Max object, which would make using Pd in
a game engine kind of superfluous - as you could directly embed Vessel
into the game instead of into Pd first. ;)
