I agree, that would be fantastic, but many commercial apps only support 
OSS, and it will be long before they change.  So are you saying that you 
want ALSA's OSS emulation to not use any ALSA features, just because OSS 
didn't provide it?  That sounds a bit weak to me.  From what Jaroslav was 
saying this is actully pretty wasy to do, so why not do it?
