You can add any custom sections that you want, called anything you
want, and references to them in the HAL files will work, as will calls

I think modularity is a good thing and will plug the option for
twopass processing that can be specified in an ini file as:

TWOPASS=[on][verbose][nodelete]
With twopass processing, you can loadrt a given comp type
in more than one file. If one uses twopass processing _and_

The idea of dynamic parameters is what we would be looking for. I will
support that notion as it is very frustrating having to restart the
system constantly. Some parameters like PID tuning / servo parameters
are done on the fly if you use the calibration function. I don't see why
