This is probably just a way-out-there nobody-will-take-the-time idea,
but has anyone ever thought of splitting the mixer part of Ardour from
the DAW part? So that e.g. if you do strictly outboard mixing, you
don't need to fire up Ardour's mixer, or more importantly, if all you
need is a mixer and plugin-patch-points (as Alex does), you can fire
up Ardour's mixer standalone? It just seems to fit the Unix mentality
more than a monolithic DAW, especially considering the existence of
JACK... though I'm sure there are a million reasons not to do it this
way. Anyway, just a thought.
