Or how about libknob? I know, this sounds silly, but if we extend that
Idea, we have libladstandards. Things like dB-level<->color mappings,
logarithmic/exponential fader scales.. plus we'd have them
configurable and behaving the same way in every app. It'd be a very
simple lib, the knob function could look like that:

float knob_f(float min, float max, xypos initial, xypos now, int keys)

This would return the knobs position with respect to the user
configuration.

What do you think? I'm not a developer, but this would be a small
project i could maintain if it's really wanted (and will be used).
