[PD] gui-plugin to creat objects

[Ivica Ico Bukvic]

FWIW pd-l2ork already has create object from an abstraction (used in K12 
mode with buttons in the menu linking to various abstractions). As soon 
as you create an object, provided it is not autopatched, it follows 
mouse as soon as the pointer enters the canvas area. This could be 
easily repurposed to create code chunks like the one you proposed...
