Ok, I'm convinced on that point, [list_argument] should use list. I
support backwards compatibility only if it doesn't affect forward
compatibility. My concern is that since [list] is new an untested,
Objection, judge! ;) It isn't untested: At least in my patches I use it all the time since it first appeared in Pd. It never crashed Pd, it always does, what it is supposed to do and I use it a lot more often than I use for example [symbol]. Plus: the [list]-abs collection could be seen as a comprehensive test-suite just for [list], which is something, many other objects don't have yet.
But I still think that [any_argument] that outputs a non-symbol is
useful too.
But that's easy to achieve using [list trim], if needed. Of course one could make another abstraction which includes this, like [any|list_argument_trimmed] but I really don't see this as a necessity.
