SF2 have quality restrictions (no 24bit, no 48 kHz).

We have previously discussed possibility of supporting sf2, akai, gig
etc, because there are libraries to support these formats (most of
them come from either LinuxSampler or Swami projects), but this will
most likely be a post-1.0 feature. There are more important things on
which you will agree, I guess.
