Very nice, thanks for making the example, I linked to it from the
wiki page.

Hans, I still have yet to learn about the WIKI stuff, but I posted
a Inlet Proxy example on my page ( http://puredata.info/Members/ mjmogo ). I don't know if you want to just put a link, or move the
file to the Proxy page you created, either way works for me.Thanks,
Mike

Well, this is not something that is within reach of many people. We need to understand not just PD's internals, but how flext uses them, and we also need to know how to integrate these things with the extended nightly builds. Not quite certain how many people know ALL of these things. Probably only a handful, and it would appear that none of them are interested in getting flext working.
GridFlow also uses proxy inlets. There are simpler examples of proxy inlets within pd itself. E.g. all [list] objects have it.
Basically you need to create another object that will be the "slave" of your main object, and then create an inlet that will use that object. The second argument of inlet_new is for that: the inlet appears on the first argument's box, but messages will be sent to the second argument's object. In that case you pass 0,0 for the other arguments (which are usually symbols, but here are null pointers to mean "not applicable")
I started a pdpedia page on the topic, please add anything useful:
