/* 
 * this object provides a way to receive messages to upstream canvases
 * by default it receives messages to the containing canvas, but you can give the "depth" as argument;
 * e.g. [receivecanvas 1] will receive messages to the parent of the containing canvas
 */

/* NOTES:
 *  it would be _really_ nice to get all the messages that are somehow "sent" to a (parent) object,
 *  no matter whether using typedmess() or using sendcanvas()
 *  this would require (however) to overwrite and proxy the classmethods for canvas which is a chore
 *
 *  currently this objects only gets the messages from typedmess()...
