FWIW the DSSI UI protocol allows this. I wouldn't really consider a
hardcoded UI system sane if it didn't allow users to replace the UI.
The UI is just an executable on disk that is run when the host wants the
open hte UI for the first time - it could eg. be a scrit that spawns Pd and
then uses a Pdpatch to control the host via OS ;)

Second thing is that the way you percieve them
shouldn't change as you
switch applications. Which is what VST perfectly fulfills - it provides
its own UI.
True somehow but then also not: If I don't like a UI I'd like to be
able to change it. That's something valueable that VST doesn't allow
you to do - or makes it harder. Usablity also has to do with what
people ae used to. I think, Emacs is not useable, Emacs users think,
Vim is not. But actually both are useable, just not if you're used to
something else.
