However, it also has its own age. And limitations. In particular, the
amount of per-note control is pitiful.
I can always use hacks to get around the limitations, or introduce a
per-note control via separate "set note parameter" event type. But hacks
are ... hacky, and the extended extension of extension for every single
feature is a bit inelegant too.
Anyway - so far, I have no code that would make use of this, so we might
keep it as plain MIDI. And then we have next 5 years to decide the
details of the feature. In the meantime, maybe the MIDI guys will decide
for us :D
