Hi, RV and MC!
I haven't even looked into this yet, so don't know how much work it is.
The compound node isn't the only new component - there is also the input node groupy thing and the output node groupy thing, which are peculiar. They don't fit the existing model, particularly the inputs.
The external input thingys can only be connect to one node.parameter, which is a very strange rule - no other connection has to be one-to-one like that - all others are one-to-many. As a result, this will require more than simple addition of a couple node definitions - it requires algorithmic changes in matmatic's rules for combining common connections.
I don't have time to do this work at the moment. I may never have time, either. SM asked me to build some mats for this release that would have been included but I have too many projects already.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
