I would imagine something like: (if you'l excuse the concrete syntax)
gmpi_controller_bind_midi(controller_a, MIDI_CC(64));
gmpi_controller_bind_midi(controller_a, MIDI_NRPN(1000));
gmpi_controller_bind_midi(controller_b, MIDI_PITCHBEND());
...
or whatever, so you can expliticly bind certain MIDI controls to GMPI
controls.
