I said I'd like abstractions that are included inside .pd files as if they were subpatchers, but otherwise work like abstractions.
I'd disagree here. Subpatches and abstractions (in Pd) are fundamentally different.
You are misunderstanding what I am saying. I simply want to be able to save abstractions in the same file as the main patch if i want to, in the same way that I can do that with procedures and classes in any programming language.
Having abstractions inside a patch is not aggressive abstraction but only leads to many copies of functionality, that then isn't abstracted (inside a patch file).
What i want is: if I have an abstraction that is saved in the same file as my patch, then right-click open on any instance will get me to that abstraction, the same one; there would be only one diagram for all instances.
