Which inlet~?
I see that your use-case is centered around connecting this object directly to 
[inlet~], but in general this just will not be the case, so i think we should 
disentangle the two objects conceptually.
I don't think we have a precedent of a "companion object" that is only 
auxiliary to another go one.

Or put otherwise: do we want to an object that tells us how many connections 
the [osc~] object that connects to it has?

If this doesn't really work (and personally I'm not convinced that it does), 
merging the functionality into [inlet~] itself might make more sense...
