If you are going to let the musician decide that, it's a host feature, not
a spec requirement, right?  The underlying mechanism is that your plugin
has to be able to handle each voice on a new VVID. You might not get each
voice on a new VVID, but you might.

So that's fine with me.  That's the core model I was advocating.  Each
plugin can decide what to do internally, and the host can decide what it
wants to send.

Plugins will still implement a scheme of their choosing, and I think they
should - they know best what they want to do.  Maximally flexible synths
won't, but some - like simple e-pianos - will.
