I'm more interested in stopping the loadbang than starting it. If you have a patch that dynamically creates itself (or worse deletes itself) when loaded, it is very useful to be able to inspect the patch without the the process starting. Initbang provides this because it bangs only when the patch is loaded as an abstraction, not when the patch is opened.
