IMHO, one of the most memorable moments of the 1st international convention (2004), is the few minutes during which several of us said that abstractions should be able to do the same things as externals. However, it's hard to reach any kind of consensus, and so, in reality, this idea took a long time to germinate and the torch is carried by rather few people.
I see... that's one of the motives why I like Grid Flow
You may also enjoy the iemguts library, as long as you ignore the signs that say "RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL KEEP OUT" and "DANGER 735000 VOLTS" and "BEWARE OF THE LEOPARD". It has quite a few externals for empowering abstractions. Actually, a handful of GridFlow externals are semi-accidental duplicates of IEMGuts externals.
You may also enjoy the fact that Gamelan Binomial's score is completely handled through GridFlow. There's a huge score in a [#store] and I play a small part of it.
