I agree, the shortcomings of MIDI are irrelevant to the requirements
discussion. What is relevant, is that there are developers who want
it, and I'm not at all sure that they're a minority.

You're welcome, and I don't deny it's a workaround, I was just answering your question as to whether it was possible; my conclusion is that if you're willing to accept a bit of additional work, it's completely possible.
This discussion is pointless, everything /can/ be done in MIDI, you can just package it up in a custom SysEx packet and send that.
The SysEx isn't be understandable without some extra-MIDI knowledge, but then neither is splitting a 470 note microtonal instrument over 4 channels.
