BTW, I wouldn't bother spending too much time on the list/arrangement 
side of things for the moment.  Steve (Harris) is working on an RDF 
description framework for LADSPA plugins which'll eventually allow 
grouping of plugins by type to allow for easier navigation.  The 
current gui (and Chris amendments) are good enough for the moment while 
things wait to settle down.  Again I think we should sit down and 
prioritise the post 0.8 tasks before too much work gets done on them.

Yeah, I like that - again the current model was just a "get things 
working" arrangement and what you suggest here is very sensible.
