considering what it does to plugin code, but it's not *that* bad, and

*much* higher, and you'd basically have to do it all the time, I
think.
OTOH the plugin /should/ be resposible for ensuring that its outputs dont
go outside the specifed ranges.
Remeber that, i they are allowed at all, hard ranges should be rare. There
seems to be a siuggestion in the PTAF document that host may have to be
responsibe for killing denormal numbers anyway, so they will have to snoop
controls in that case.
