Oh, everybody agrees on this, they just don't agree on what simplicity is and how to achieve it.
Furthermore, you could also extend Ctrl+Return, making it the shortcut for connecting already instantiated objects. I.e if we select (with the mouse):
My idea was that Ctrl+Return would be a key binding of a box being edited, not of the canvas, so you wouldn't be able to just select objects and press Ctrl+Return. I suppose, Ctrl+Return could also be bound to the canvas, but in that case, the origin of the choice of Ctrl+Return is meaningless (it's supposed to be a variation on the Return binding of a box being edited)
... and hit Ctrl+Return we get the outlets of the message boxes connected to the left inlet of [f ].
But Chun already did this in a different way which also works for connecting to several objects at once and allows to choose the outlet number and inlet number.
