Will that standalone version be able to have its parameters recorded and
automated from the host, and have its presets saved and recalled with
relative ease of use? If not, then it will not "work" for a significant
number of use cases, and it will therefore be considered "broken".
Automation and session management remain an Achilles heal of
the modularity of linux audio, as Louigi's article rightfully points out.
Maybe that situation works for you, and I may just be a humble user, but
dammit, I really do want Linux Audio to be the best damn audio production
environment it can be.

In other words, it'd be in a lot of peoples' interests if the issue could be
thrashed out a little more before it gets thrown in the "too-hard" basket.

respectfully
michael
