The "current value" of a controller is really more complicated than it seems 
at a glance.  I guess you could search back in time for the last thing 
Rosegarden actively set it to, and assume that's the current value, although 
there can be no assurance that's actually the case without setting up some 
complicated bidirectional communication between Rosegarden and the MIDI 
playback engine on the receiving end.

I definitely wouldn't take it that far, so I suppose the assumption is the 
only realistic thing you could do, even though it's imperfect.

I don't have any big objection to the spirit of making these things behave 
relative to the assumed "current value," but I'm also inclined to think that 
the behavior of stripping controllers out of ornaments is probably 
fundamentally reasonable due to all of these complications.

Try to aim at preserving everything of the status quo while enabling the 
possibility of having new and separate opportunities for those who 
specifically want them, and actively seek them out.  That's what I recommend.
