Initial Comment:

From time to time (I haven't been able to isolate a set of steps that reproduces this), an error message like the following appears on the console:

(Tcl) INVALID COMMAND NAME: invalid command name ".c" while executing ".c coords a7e9d8RCOVER 869 255 877 333" ("uplevel" body line 1) invoked from within "uplevel #0 $cmd_from_pd"

and suddenly ALL the gui elements of a certain type or of several types (e.g. all sliders and/or all toggles and/or all number boxes) stop working, meaning that they will stop responding to mouse interaction and stop being updated.

Here's another example of the error message:

(Tcl) INVALID COMMAND NAME: invalid command name ".x1814f00.c" while executing ".x1814f00.c itemconfigure .x17a9308.t1809158R -fill blue" ("uplevel" body line 9287) invoked from within "uplevel #0 $cmd_from_pd"

This happens to me from time to time with very complex patches with a lot of GOP-enabled abstractions. I'm sorry I can't provide a simple test patch but i think this was worth reporting as it is a complete show stopper.
