Argh.... sorry for not having followed the discussion when it took

place, but I have to say I really dislike this extension.
The problem is that it can easily go against the "graceful degrading

configuration" concept of LV2. E.g., suppose writing a varispeed

plugin that takes the amount of delay as a control input - you will

end up writing two versions, one using CV ports and another using

normal control ports, if you want to support both kinds of hosts.
IMO it could be better done like this: cv:CVPort to be a subclass of

lv2:ControlPort and a feature URI to be defined.
