To be fair, "pd-dsp-started" / "pd-dsp-stopped" are not mentioned in the
change log. I also discovered them by accident (probably from reading
the [samplerate~] help patch).
It would be cool if there was a central place where all (public) Pd and
canvas messages are documented. The canvas messages are especially messy
because they are currently split across several help patches and
examples...

No, the regression isn't much different, it's more that things such as
"dynamic patching" were never really intended form the start and
became canon, to some extent.

I would also point out that internal messages such as pd-dsp-started
don't really come with an expected behavior for user patches. Saying
how it works is a "bug" belies that fact that I don't believe it was
ever intended to be used for this and just because it can be grabbed
via a [r] also doesn't guarantee anything.
The method you point out is shown in the help patch of [samplerate~]
without any reference that it should be considered a bug or temporary
measure.
This is also why it's so hard to change almost *any* behavior within
Pd as you can never really be 100% certain you aren't breaking
someone's end use case.
Do you feel this regression condition is much different in other
software?
best, P
