Right, I'm rofgetting, the "pd $0-x" ends up naming the canvas "pd-$0-x" which is hard to generate as a symbol.
True, but it's possible, however then we have the other problem: Sending to this target only works with either a set-able send or message sends like: [; $1 $2 $3 $4 ...( where $1 is created to be "pd-$0-x". The problem is: The argument count must be known in advance, which is not always possible in dynamic patching.
A solution could be $* in messages. Or, heresy!, let $0 work if it's not at the start of a symbol.
