FWIW, I've done a lot of work at cleaning up gop-related bugs in 
pd-l2ork. This is one of them (in other words, pd-l2ork is not affected 
by this). It may not be a bad idea to do some code comparison between 
g_editor.c g_canvas.c and g_graph.c files where most of these reside in 
hope of merging this into regular pd/extended.
