it's neither a bug nor a feature. the DSP-graph is re-built when the patch is saved, and so the "pd-dsp-started" is emitted.
so it's not very useful while patching
how so?
(a [metro] will also send bangs while patching, and yet it is useful in live-coding contexts.)
After a moment of thinking about this, and about the bug with [bang~] only working after creation when the dsp graph is rebuilt, I must admit I do find it awkward that certain things in a pd dsp graph only work after explicitely forcing the dsp grap to be rebuilt by saving the patch. After all, would anyone be happy with a message object that only works correctly after having saved a patch? There might be implementations details I am ignorant of, which prevent other behavior, but as a Pd user this usefulness does come to certain minds.
