(Plugins) ProtoFlux nodes with arbitrary/dynamic Inputs and Outputs

[ColinTimBarndt]

How does ProtoFlux handle nodes with such a dynamic structure? There are already input and output lists, but they are limited to the same type.

The only node I could find which actually has arbitrary/dynamic inputs and outputs (not just a list of the same type) is ProtoFlux.Runtime.Execution.NestedNode<C>. It is obviously not currently implemented to be used within FrooxEngine (no bindings), but it does implement dynamic IO using InputMapping, OutputMapping, ArgumentList, CallList, etc.

1. Is a NestedNode handled differently than all other nodes?
2. Is it possible to implement such a node using plugins (if I make my own bindings for FrooxEngine)? How would I do so? (See below)
3. Can I implement INestedNode for this?
4. I've seen that the abstract ExecutionNode<C> has a few virtual methods and getters for fixed and dynamic inputs. Could I override those for a similar effect?
5. While I'm already at it, why does FrooxEngine not use such a node for Method Proxies instead of all the auto-generated classes for all different counts and types (value/object) of parameters?

I'd be interested to know more about the inner workings of this.

The broader context is that I'm working on a plugin which is adding WebAssembly support to experiment with ways to integrate it into the game, not just for ProtoFlux.
