I think this would be of great use. The FCB is based on the Softrock DDS design, which evolved to a family of different solutions, with the common factor of a stereo sound interface and a HID interface for control like frequency, source multiplexer switch and filter banks. AFAIK the HID commands are the same in most of these designs. Treating the system as a single interface much like a USRP would get users rid of extra programs and doing things every time over again.
