i'm not sure i understand the question.

obviously, deken can only ever find objects  that are part of a library 
(regardless of whether they are implemented as abstractions of binary 
"externals").

whether deken find objects, solely depends on whether the uploader 
decided to upload an objects-list file (*.dek.txt).

e.g. chris' "ws" library contains a single abstraction 
([websocket-server]) and it is found just fine:
   http://localhost:8000/search?objects=websocket

up until now, the object-list was kind of underused (although searching 
for an object-name via "Find externals..." will return all libraries 
containing such an object), which probably explains why many packages 
lack it.
