I can see your point, but generall I feel that WAV output is more
descriptive to the user than disk output, and that's what people have
called it when they asked for the feature.
Can I suggest that we rename it when we move to the new plugin
architecture for 3.0? At that point we'll also have an improved options
system that will allow for the things that you're planning for.
Is that reasonable?
