Sounds like a useful patch, is it in the patch tracker?
no.
I think there is a reason to do both. So if the object doesn't create, it should throw the error like in this patch. But like IOhannes talked about, something like [netrecieve]. Currently, if there is a port conflict, it just doesn't create. Instead it should create, and throw a pd_error() that explains the port conflict. So both are very useful.
It is not useful to have this feature if the port number does not come out by an outlet, because then, the programme that does [netsend] cannot know where to connect to.
