Let me be more specific, then: I am primarily interested in improvements
that benefit people using the default syntheszier *with the default
soundfont* (which, of course, could potentially be something other than the
current default - if there exists a suitable candidate). The 99% of users
I am talking about are people who simply use the defaults and want good
results right out of the box - default syntehszier and default soundfont.
To put it as directly as I can: I personally would want to see a design
that allows for better results right out of the box as the #1
consideration. If it also happens to help the small minotirty of people
willing to mess with proprietary soundfonts and/or external synthsizers,
great, but a design that *only* considers those cases and might turn out to
be incomaptible with an eventual solution for the 99% is, to me, not very
appealing. So I would urge you to consider how a design like you are
considering could possily benefit everyone, not just a select few. It's OK
if it *also* benefits the select few, or perhaps benefits them a little
*more* than the 99%, but I'm more concerned about the 99% than the 1%.
