how about moving the entire sequencer into user-space? kernel 2.5
(with POSIX clock support) makes this entirely viable, i think. 

the only ugliness i can see is that inter-thread communication is
harder to make totally robust in the face of system/process shutdown
than user<->kernel communication (c.f. JACK).

there is other stuff that needs to be done for 1.0, not necessarily
development. we need GUI tools for many common user operations. we
need *much* better documentation than we have now. i also think that
the firmware-loading-from-file needs to be done too, and we might need
to make more use of tasklets.
