[PD] pd-l2ork feedback

[Ivica Ico Bukvic]

OK, I hunted down some problems within the gop redrawing which should 
streamline things even further. That said, flatgui objects like knob are 
chronically broken. I also tested them in the latest version of 
pd-extended. Try creating one knob, then another in the same window. Now 
delete one and crash... Tons of problems with it on other levels as 
well... I am really thinking about getting rid of flatgui altogether.
