Not sure. But A_DEFSYM and A_DEFFLOAT are implemented in a way that
allows an arbitrary number of extra float/symbol arguments, so it
could be `[inlet this inlet controls frequency]`. Or following the
`[get]` and `[set]` pattern-- `[inlet - this inlet controls
frequency]` to skip over the first arg that is currently used for
up/downsampling.
Someone asked on the Purr Data list about this. It would be easy to
implement, but it doesn't cover the case of setting a description for
the object itself. Plus I'd much rather just leverage the
documentation index in the GUI to look up tooltip data.
