This already exists in both FLsetVal_i and FLsetVali forms in Csound 5.

istvan had some fix that channed internally all the '_'s
to '.'s -- for example:

{ "oscilv.kk", S(XOSC),  5,     "a",    "kkio", Foscset, NULL,   Fosckk
},
{ "oscilv.ka", S(XOSC),  5,     "a",    "kaio", Foscset, NULL,   Foscka
},
{ "oscilv.ak", S(XOSC),  5,     "a",    "akio", Foscset, NULL,   Foscak
},
{ "oscilv.aa", S(XOSC),  5,     "a",    "aaio", Foscset, NULL,   Foscaa
}

...and I had a fix that changes aaoscil to oscil_aa
And _  was not a valid character in any id at that time.
