The issue here is that Mr Bond wants a sampler like Kontakt that works
with Linux audio systems and saves its state.  The best way to achieve
that is to work on a free alternative, eg, Linux Sampler.  Comparing
that with flogging yourself trying to get licenses changed for the sole
purpose of hacking up some VST niceness, and the alternative seems a
lot simpler and a lot more productive.

Forest, you might reconsider your decision that fst has the most
long-term potential and check out Linux Sampler instead; specifically
QSampler.
