I haven't read the full discussion, but I just wanted to check if you're aware of the [namecanvas] object?
I don't recall why Jamie wants to have a [getpatchname], but there are possible uses of [getpatchname] which aren't doable by [namecanvas], and vice-versa.
the receive-symbol for a given abstraction will contact all canvases of instances of all abstractions while not allowing to contact a single instance in particular, whereas [namecanvas] will only allow to contact one instance.
