As a proof of concept I evolved some bool control related processings and 
widgets, now in the NetworkEditor. See whats going on here:

typed.html

As the post says next steps in that field is generalizing the control sender 
and display so that they can be added without adding code to the NetworkEditor 
or the Prototyper but with plugins.

Any ideas are wellcome.

David.
