thank you for the hint. this is what i was looking for.
it would work well, but for my intention to create a patch by sending messages to a canvas, i encountered another problem: a collision between [dist]-syntax and pd-syntax: for creating new patches it's needed to send messages like [connect 0 0 2 0]. [dist] interpret it as a request to connect with "". may a mixture of [dist] and [$0 $1 $2 ...] would work.
or would it make sense rewrite this object and using instead of 'connect' and 'disconnect' , 'add' and 'remove' (like an item of a list)?

I read:
is there a way to change sendsymbol of a [send]-object dynamically?
I find using maxlib's dist for this purpose very convenient. There is a patch floating around that allows to use set messages to change the destination of a send object, and you can of course use messages to the canvas to generate an appropriate [send somewhere] on the fly.
