ardour-dev has nothing. we do almost all discussion on IRC these days.

definitely. for the record, i intend to have ardour do the right thing
post-2.0, but right now when i am putting out fires that prevent us
from turning the corner to 1.0, a solution is required, or maybe i
should say "decision" :)
right now, ardour just requires the user to set this up manually. the
only argument i can see in favor of at least some 2in/2out plugins
having a 1in/2out cousin is that their DSP algorithms are actually
different in each case. whether thats true for the typical cases under
discussion, i don't know.
