Currently there's no way for an object to handle its own xlet
placement. So although that would be a
great usability/readability enhancement for [route], the current xlet
placement algorithms can't match xlet positions
with arguments.

Segmented patch cords are probably easier. We could just store the
point data as extra arguments to the "connect"
method.

The problem is that both Pd Vanilla and Purr Data currently type-check
the "connect" method looking for 4 arguments. So we'd
need to get Pd Vanilla to change the method signature to A_GIMME to
allow the extra arguments so that the syntax works
in both versions of Pd.
