with the recent addition of deken to pd-vanilla, it seems that the tcl-prompt has been kicked out.
was this intentional? can we have it back? (if it is considered too low-level for the ordinary user, it could be hidden into the preferences dialog)

Wow, I assumed nobody used that at all. I think it would be an appropriate plug-in, but isn't really a good idea as a built-in feature.
Would it be suitable to reinstate it as a plug-in?

ah yes, that's a good idea.
would you mind leaving the actual code for the tcl-prompt in the pd-gui (so a plugin only needs to instantiate it)?

I'm Happy to leave that in for a while at least - ultimately, I think it would be more maintainable to move the code into the plug-in, unless there's some reason that's not feasible.

actually, by now the plugin is self-contained. so you can remove the entire tcl_prompt code from pdwindow.tcl.
afaict, that's:
variable ::pdwindow::tclentry variable ::pdwindow::tclentry_history variable ::pdwindow::history_position proc ::pdwindow::eval_tclentry proc ::pdwindow::get_history proc ::pdwindow::validate_tcl proc ::pdwindow::create_tcl_entry
and the calls to frame .pdwindow.tcl -borderwidth 0 pack .pdwindow.tcl -side bottom -fill x in ::pdwindow::create_window
