Is there enough information available to the core, that could show in
the GUI if the default list distribution method applies to a given
(instance of) an object? Can function pointers be compared for equality
in C?
I'm thinking something like an underlined first inlet if the automatic
list distribution applies (or the reverse), but of course other options
are available, like tooltips or context menu etc....

Hi,
here is a reply from Miller that might have bypassed the list.

Certain objects (like spigot or list) don't work this way. I don't think
there's a hard-and-fast rule. Perhaps the ones that manage lists specially
should be flagged as not distributing lists among inlets.

the help patch for [makenote] could mention that the object accepts a
list in its leftmost inlet as well, or is this behavior taken for
granted along all message-objects?
Yes, this my understanding. When list messages are received on the
left-most inlet, the atoms are spread over the inlets.

Thanks Roman!
I knew about this with the simple math objects, but can someone confirm
that it does work for all objects?
Best, P
