consider the SFZ file format. it refers to other audio samples. it
doesn't require that the references use absolute paths, but they can.
so now create a plugin that allows the user to alter what samples are
used for various note numbers or velocity values or whatever (i.e. a
reasonably capable sampler) and ask it to save its current state. it
gives you an SFZ file to stash away in a location of the host's own
choosing. but what do the contents refer to?
