For the curious, plugin control beyond beyond floats is where the most work has been going on lately and should be released soon, and is working in LV2 svn as well as my simple test host jalv[1]. The relevant stuff is the atom[2] and message[3] extensions. The example sampler plugin[4] uses this to talk between the UI and plugin to load sample files. High level overview/rationale documentation is still nonexistent, but particularly since there's a working example it should be pretty figure-out-able. This work, in conjunction with the state[5] extension, should remove all need for control port kludges and plugins accessing the file system.
