Okay I can can confirm that using donecanvasdialog is triggering the edit mode thing, though I'm not sure why there is no indication from pd upon loading a patch on startup that it is, in fact, in edit mode. I tried some patches made by other people, such as waveform.mmb or whatever it is called, and a couple of others and they all toggled edit mode on the parent patch. They also all cause pd to crash when the parent patch is closed. I didn't get any hints from the terminal but the script I usually use to start pd wasn't working for some reason and I have to head out again for an hour or two but I'll look into it more when I get back.
