At least in Pd-l2ork, clicking "New" in the "File" menu sends a series of
messages to Pd to set the filename/dir,create a new canvas, and "pop" the new
canvas. So I'm guessing Chris has figured out he can send thesemessages in
Pd-extended 0.42 to manually create a new patch with whatever name/directory he
wants.
Same thing happens in Pd-Vanilla, except it's a single "menunew" message sent
to Pd and the canvas gets named,created and pop'd as a result.
Pd-l2ork has [preset_node] and [preset_hub], but Pd-l2ork currently only runs
on GNU/Linux.

according to the source code it does not.
it simply sets the filename and path for the next to-be-created abstraction.

hmm, why don't you just use a text-file (or multiples thereof) for presets?
dynamic patching can generally be avoided.
e.g. marian's [kollabs] is a very powerful Pd-vanilla state-saving
system, that doesn't rely on any undocumented features.
