I'm being a bit selfish here of course, since in FL Studio events don't have
timestamps. So it takes more effort for me to convert to absolute timestamps
than to use offsets.

Personally I find offsets easier for a plugin too. There are some plugin
types that benefit from absolutes, but in my opinion the majority does not
and would benefit from offsets more.
