This is fine with me. I certainly agree with excluding MIDI.
I just want to re-state that these messages should have better musical
semantics than MIDI.
For example, the NOTE ON message should use a float for the key number
(Pitch) so that pitch bends and microtones can be communicated in this way,
or variant tuning systems.

OK, time for the flame-proof suits....
Someone has to suggest the most radical option....
NO MIDI, we're done.
What am I saying?, Convert MIDI controlers to GMPI parameters (at the graph
'edge').
e.g. MIDI Pitch Bends get converted to GMPI parameter-change events, if you
have a parameter called "Channel[0]/Pitch-Bend" (or whatever) it receives
the pitch bends.
What is a MIDI message?, a destination and a value. Just another form of
parameter-change event, targeted at a standardised parameter name.
Note-ons?, they're just 3 parameters 'bundled': Note-on, Pitch, Velocity,
addressed to a specific voice.
