Since it seems that we are trying to not limit host design, I would say use the flag and have plugins set a capability flag for whether or not they use IsZero. If they do not advertise the capability, then the host always clears the IsZero flag upon return from the plugin, thus making it the host's responsibility to avoid the bug I mentioned above. If the plugin says they do understand IsZero, then it becomes the plugin's responsibility to avoid incorrectly marking their output buffers as zero.


Capability flags are a trouble spot, but its not neccesary to have 1 flag
per buffer, there can be one flag per port, which means you dont need a
capability flag.

I had not intended a capability per buffer. I had meant a capability flag per plugin, but it could be per port.
