Notable limitations:

is that a real limitation?
Do you have a practicable example where one need to share memory of different 
size?

i don't think this is the problem that chuck is referring to.
afaiu, it's rather that the two processes need to have a priori knowledge of two 
different "thingies" in order to share some memory (without bad surprises): the 
ID and the size.

Things are like that because I copy code from your object "pix_share_read" and 
"pix_share_write"!

from a UX pov the question is, why it's not possible to only have to share a single 
"thingy" (the ID) and have the others be shared implicitly.

Yes, automatically sharing the memory size could be possible, and can be useful 
in some situation.

Since I don't spend a lot's of time in pd currently, one should not expect a 
new version soon. But I accept patch!
