1. LADSPA plugins are dynamically linked shared libraries, and not
considered a part of LMMS - they can be distributed with LMMS regardless
of license. That said, nothing stops you from using any LADSPA plugins
with LMMS, even if they are not distributed with it.
I'm not really sure about 2. Probably safest to just do it like it's
done in other LADSPA plugins though.
