Can you tell me where I might find some documentation on the external UI
extension?  When I followed that link, I followed the URI in the header file
to

#define LV2_EXTERNAL_UI_URI "http://lv2plug.in/ns/extensions/ui#external"

If that is the *internal* UI extension, and seperate from the *external* UI
extension, is there some other wiki page about the external UI extension?

Also, what is the difference?  I understand the concept of an external UI,
which is a seperate window launched by the plugin host which controls the
plugin inputs, but I don't really understand what an internal UI would be.
Wouldn't that just be the generic GUI generated by the host?
