i'd rather say that tof was making assumptions about private
implementation details of Pd and was exploiting them.
(pretty much all GUI objects do that)

in which case there are two ways to implement your proposal:
- stop all development of Pd and only fix bugs.
OR
- continue development and support all (broken) APIs ever exposed.

i figure from the feature requests you posted in the past, that the
first option is not viable for you.

the second option has a well known predecessor: Microsoft Windows.
i'm pretty sure we do not want to go down *that* road (leaving aside
financial feasibility: you probably need to employ coders to keep that
up and running)
