Only if you actually need the configure() stuff, which many plugins 
might not.  But I agree it's not exactly ideal.  Better ideas 
welcome.

I don't think OSC knows anything about "configuration" as such, it's 
just a delivery mechanism for passing typed arguments to named 
methods.  Steve's really the OSC nut though: I'm just happy that it's 
reasonably simple and it works.
