first off, i discovered that the "intelligent patching" feature actually comes from Pd-l2ork (and Purr-Data, as the new incarnation of Pd-l2ork inherited it). sorry for the improper credits.

As long as we're at it, here's an upcoming feature from max 8 that I like even better. Holding shift and dragging objects in and out of cords magically connect/disconnect them.
It's the 1st feature in here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nk6fv4hXaGg&feature=youtu.be
i thought about that, but it is much more complicated to implement than what i just did (i think).
there's sometzhing similar with the triggerize-plugin (i mentioned in my announcment post), that at least allows you to insert an dummy object into a connection (just select the connection and press "triggerize").
also it is unclear to me, whether this is restricted to the first iolet of the shift-dragged object or if you can select others as well (and if so: how).
and what about multiple objects? and objects that are moved by cursor-keys?
