I think the relationship is that parameters are what control IO controls?


Or, put otherwise.  Control IO is the abstract name for events which
control parameters.
?

Love to clarify it..

So -- to stick with the existing terminology before we try to improve it -- there are parameter-setting event messages flying around in the graph, and they travel only on paths that terminate at control I/O ports, and after arriving at a given plug's given control I/O port, the messages get split out to parameter destinations based on the (probably OSC-style) parameter ID tag? Is that the idea?
