no.
which messages an object supports is entirely up to the object itself.
even though Pd's code has rudimentary implementation of an
object-oriented inheritance concept, this is only used in a few special
cases.
there are 3 ways to find out which objects accept a "set" message:
- read the help-patch
- read the source
- send a "set" message to the object and see what it does
