this is exactly the idea behind a library. it serves functionality, and above 
that, one can release/create the (software) ideas, without worring the basic 
functionality every sound software is needed. 
so many people on this list had reinvended the wheel/soundengine again and 
again. 

And for me, the question will be: what is in and what is out off the scope of 
such a library. But this is a different discussion. 

It would be much easier for all of us, to have a well accepted library with 
the basic functionality. and easier means tested and proven by lots of apps 
and users.
