And most importantly host automation.

I wanted to reply to Tims days old mail where he mentioned the MVC model
re. GMPI plugins. I'm not sure his caracterisation was correct - I think
the host is the model, the UI is a view and controller and the plugin is a
view (and controller if it changes its own values).

Logically the plugin is producing an audio view of the controls, os this
makes sense.
