MusicDevice instrument types

Subject: MusicDevice instrument types

I would like to provide users with an NSBrowser to select
DLS synth instruments based on categories. I really just want the
default groupings for the Apple instruments as they appear in
the QuickTime instruments picker - Piano, Brass, Reed, Drum Kits, etc.

Is there a standard (MIDI or CoreAudio) way to determine this?

Using the AudioUnit properties I can get the ID and name of each
instrument but I do not see any obvious way to determine which belong
to which group. I could hard-code a scheme based on IDs or indices
but if there's a dynamic way to determine this at runtime I'd rather
use that...

Thanks for any help,
Chris
