that's great. don't know if you want to, but I would suggest to copy another useful max feature: when you click on a send or receive object (the same for their audio versions), a pop-up comes up listing how many other objects exist using the same variable, and by clicking in any of these objects it takes you to the patch where they are.
AFAICS this is currently not possible because most of the gui is still handle by pd (instead of tcl), therefore sub-patches are not accessible, etc..
You need to modify the 'find' method in the canvas class. You make one version that doesn't auto-select an item, but instead sends a list of all matches to the tcl side for your use.

that's what I meant, it's currently not possible in a gui-plugin (i.e. in tcl only)
