The idea was that the host would be spawning the frontend (GUI, whatever). In LADSPA it is fairly simple for a frontend to inspect the plugin to find out what its ports are. OTOH it could be a wothwhile addition if we ever support frontends to "lambda networks". I don't really like the idea of specifying the ports by string as this makes the LADPSA case unnecesarily slow. It would require a lookup by the host for every parameter change. - Steve
