it's possible to make a DesireData GUI for any Pd class, including abstractions.
to turn IEMGUI into an abstraction, what's missing is the savefn/saveargs/scanargs business.

-finalizing an empty comment, so that you can still see, select and
-delete it.
-[ ] the file browser (openpanel/savepanel) would support keystrokes to
-navigate: alt+up one dir up, tab to toggle focus between text entry and
-graphical area (where folders and files are displayed)...etc
-[ ] opening the filebrowser wouldn't cause the Pd main window to pop in
-front of all the patcher windows after it is closed.
-[ ] one object could be finalized by clicking the outlet of another object,
-so that you can immediately connect it. The extra click outside the
-object to finalize it first is unnecessary. When I click the outlet of
-another object, it is obvious that I am done typing the name of the
