Yes, so I've heard, and that's really great. 

It was, however, the automatic merits that I wished mainly to explore. 
Freezing has it's merits, but it requires that you dedicate some brain cycles 
to deciding when and where you wish to freeze/unfreeze something. I could 
sure use those cycles for keeping creativity flowing.

... and I do think you can freeze a bus, but it requires that the app has full 
knowledge of the connection graph. Mmmm, I see a jack extension forming ;))
