I think you do need need gesture start/end times - one of the purposes
is to let a sequencer override its sequenced events for the particular
control. Eg. when a user clicks on a slider but hasn't dragged yet it
shouldn't move under automation control.

Gesture IDs probably arent neccesary as I cant think what the meaning of
multiple gestures from one source could be, so identifying them by the
source should be fine.

I dont think it really matters wether the start/end times are out-of-band,
inline with value/ramp events or on a seperate port.
