You know, data structures explicitly use messages to subpatches, like 'clear' and 'read/write'. So at least these are official. And the namecanvas help file had the example to make the patch create messages and we can agree this is pretty stable and used in patches. Also, 'connect' messages are used in patches and the syntax won't likely change (so won't 'disconnect').
So this leaves us me touching a dark corner apparently only when talking about 'coords' and I guess I can have a warning about it. And we change and document your PR when it gets in. I can also refer to iemguts for more stable and further wizardry.
