[PD] clone object - dynamically change number of instances?

[hans w. koch]

hello list, 
hello miller,

is there any known way to dynamically change the number of instances associated with a clone object, e.g. via message?
i know, the dsp graph would need to be rebulit, but for a project i am contemplating that would be less of a concern.

if not, can i suggest this for consideration as a feature request?

thanks for the object anyway, very helpful
