You can get all of the above (except onMouseUp behavior) using
data structures. Really, there should just be a way to "deputize" a
ds array as a Pd array usable by [tabread] and the like.
So if you have a subpatch with
[struct blah float x array some_array]
you could put the following in the same subpatch:
[deputize some_array]
And now [tabwrite~ some_array]
will work.
But I don't know the inner workings of Pd either, so I'm not sure how
feasible this is.
