I can see how it might make sense to use OSC as a proxy protocol between MIDI devices. Other than that, I don't see the point of restricting oneself to MIDI while using OSC. Although [packOSC] and [oscformat] do not directly support the m tag, you could still cook your own format using 'b' (blob) type and four bytes. And if you really need it to be proper 'm', you could still write it as an abstraction (as long as it supports only one tag, it should be fairly simple with [list tosymbol] and some [list append]s and [list prepend]s).
