This would be perfect for me, I desperately want a simpler (i.e., less
code) way to create OSC-enabled parameters.
I think it would even be possible to do this easily with Chuck code if
it supported references for primitive types.
(I'll draw attention yet again to:
<http://wiki.cs.princeton.edu/index.php/References_for_primitives.>)

Although my suggestion didn't use the chuck operator => which is a
pretty cool idea.

I think this would be a fantastic thing to get implemented, I'll have
to have a closer look at the Chuck code when I get a chance.
