I'll put this up for discussion: how about an OSC type interface?

In order to create above message,
// si representing one "string" and one "int" => "si".
message = forge_create( "si", uris.rdfs_label,  "a wild message appears!",
uris.my_intensity, 9000 ); ?

I like the single-function & done approach, as shown in the liblo docs here:
http://liblo.sourceforge.net/docs/group__liblo.html#gafa4253874f97c2c16254ac57d2b7c987

Perhaps the OSC type url thing is relevant, but it may be useful for
decoding the ellipsis..
Overloading forge_create to infinity might solve it otherwise :)
