I was assuming the SILENT event would be aginst a voice ID.

That will only work if all your instruments procduce SILENT events and you
recevie all the relevent VOICE_ON events though. Is this even possible? I
bet I can think of a processing graph where it isn't resolvable.
Paticularly if you allow LADSPA plugins in the graph.
For this and the other reasons you mentioned I dont think this is not
possible/practical.
