I thought [send13] and [receive13] from the ext13 library were for settable send and receive? Or am I misunderstanding the question?
for settable send i would _highly_ recommend to use the built-in [send]. whether you use [iem_r] or [receive13] is probably only a matter of taste (but i think that most of ext13's objects are not so important nowadays; and d13b is not so active in Pd land any more)
I've used those 2 objects a lot and thought they seemed pretty stable...
that's because the "trivial" case (where receiving data and changing the receive label are completely independent of each other (stackwise)) won't create much of a problem.
it's easy to implement a feature and suddenly end up with a bug. it's even common. both [recevie13] and [iem_receive] have probably gone this route. however, it's incredibly harder to implement a feature where you know beforehand that you will open a can of worms and you don't know yet how to close it (properly). that's the route [r] has gone.
