The only use I could conceive for these headers would be to build external
plugins for lmms, As Tres has already mentioned, our API is unstable , and
changes are undocumented.

What are the disadvantages of installing our header files?

On the other hand, anyone with the skill set to develop external
applications for lmms, is more than capable of getting the files, And are
probably already known to the LMMS project, and reading this mailing list.

If anyone is using the headder files in question, now could be a good time
to speak up.
