Hey all,
I am still looking for use cases for scriptlets for the new GUI, so
I've heard people request adding their own patches to the Media menu.
I whipped up a quick scriptlet that let's you do just that, just 5
lines of Tcl. Its attached, and also checked into SVN into pd/
startup. There are a couple others in there that are in the 'pd/
startup/disabled' folder, move them to 'pd/startup' to try them.

I would find this quite useful. but maybe also with:
- possibility of categories, like aaa->bbb.pd
- putting the configuration of the files in .pdsettings, or any other
textfile?
But then that'll be more than 5 lines of code.

Not directly related to this, but... Would be nice also have a menu for setting the colors of canvas, object, message, atoms, etc...
ex:
set canvas_fill #bac08c; set msg_cord #ffffff; set text_color #000000; set msg_box_fill #f8ef60; set box_outline #ffffff; set obj_box_fill #8faa80; set atom_box_fill #baaa80;
and save this configs as "color templates"...

I added canvas_fill, but the rest require bigger modifications than
can go into this phase of the rewrite. But Pd-extended will continue
to support them.
I've been messing with the 'option' command, it should let you do such
things, and more. Check out pd/startup/disabled/gtklook.tcl. If you
put it into pd/startup/gtklook.tcl, it will change the Properties
panels to be more "GTK like".

I already do this for a while, with HCs [hcs/sys_gui] object. Just program
your own color scheme, and load up a patch a startup with the settings you
want. it's not perfect, but it works.
