Yeah, Paul Davis only talked about DAWs, so a new soundfont-player is much 
easier! And there aren't enough different soundfont-formats available, you 
will probably invent your own?

I don't get your problem. fluidsynth reacts quite well on midi-control. Just 
adjust the individual volume/pan/chorus/reverb with the corresponding 
midi-messages and you will get what you want.
Why do you think it is easier to have that in a separate gui (like qsynth) 
instead of being stored in your rosegarden/muse/<any other 
midi-sequencer>-session?
