ARG! And all the time I thought it's an incomplete implemetation or 
something, and I was stuck with a choice of 2 controlers ...
I managed to forget to report this problem though (or maybe 
I have and forgotten that :)

I would expect access to all controlers if the instrument isn't specified 
at all.
