In that case there is a bug in AudioTwingTwang, its as

have no idea why people think they can get away with releasing

buggy apps, because it can bring down other peoples software.
Valid 1.0 LADSPA plugins are also valid 1.1 plugins. 1.2 should follow
this trend.
Amen!
So as a sophisticated host the least thing you could try to do if you
find a plugin violating 1.2's specs is try to use it as a valid 1.1/1.0
plugin instead of simply rejecting it.
Since Fons' proposal is only an add-on for 1.1 this shouldn't be a
problem.
Just for the sake of *usability*
