If I have 100 LADSPA plug-ins installed and 3 LADSPA hosts, I'd rather
spend my time learning the guis of the 3 host-applications than
learning the different guis of 100 plug-ins. That a plug-in then has
three different interfaces depending on in which application I use it
isn't a problem. Also it looks a lot better (imho) when everything in
an application looks exactly the same. Letting plug-ins decide too
much about how they should be rendered is a bad thing. A little more
control than today could be useful at times though.
