Decided to have a look at this and I can't find any such check boxes - prolly
means I'm looking in the wrong place.

My take on this is that we should have the choice of being able to stop
Rosegarden doing *any* initialising of the destination synth(s) but still pass
through any MIDI messages embedded in a file, or sent from and external source.

Now I appreciate that some older devices may start up in an undefined state but
no modern ones should, so I wonder if a per device initialise checkbox should be
placed in Manage Midi Devices -> Midi Outputs.

If checked, then Banks, Program, CCs all would be sent at startup to just that
device, otherwise only messages as above.

As for the existing controls would it be practical to make them still operate,
but actually embed the appropriate CCs in a running file? Or is that over the
top?
