Well, if the UI does not have a back-channel, then the UI must queue up
some event, right? Non-native control woul get a "spontaneous" sPA call,
which could be identified as "from MIDI" or something.
And there could be a rule as to when sPA can be called. For example,
only allowed during a plug's process() routine (or whatever). Any othe
sPA calls could be flagged as errant.
