Yes, this is the "Piano release mode" in GS, and I agree it's a nice 
feature. But it is handled fine in Engine::ProcessControllChange. The 
code in ProcessNoteOn is not needed for this if I understand things 
correctly?

For me, the ProcessNoteOn code only seems to eat polyphony and make the 
second note unnecessarily loud.
