That's the obvious one.  That's why I suggested making it possible to fix the 
channel.

Actually, I think it's a lot more likely users will run into problems with old 
stuff where they had conflicting controllers on the same track or playing 
through the same instrument, and they worked around this to their satisfaction 
without ever quite realizing what was going on in the first place.  We 
straighten it out, and now Rosegarden is magically doing what they told it to 
do all along, but the results are unexpected.

I think that's more likely, because I've already run into that twice playing 
around with old stuff with his branch.  It's a brave new world.

True.

Right, and how many people read the FAQ vs. how many people just draft a 
private email directed at me?  Are you so vehemently behind this idea that 
you're willing to see me just redirect all of that stuff to you, and let you 
deal with it?  If so, you've removed one of my biggest objections, and I'll 
pretty much just shut up.
