Dynamic table names / reference

#1

I guess this is a FR because I didn't find anything about it:

would be great if there was a way to change the table an object is referring to
dynamically,
via sending a string to an inlet...

#2

currently table names are compile time variables for efficiency.. (important at audio rate)

you could implement some kind of dynamic tables, though id avoid strings (expensive to compare), so probably more like multi dimensional tables, but you will have to take the indirect access hit... ok for some use case, not for others.
you'll also have to be careful with varying table lengths too.

(of course, a decent implementation can mitigate some of the inefficiencies, if the reference is not being changed too frequently)
