I have to agree with Art. The problem posed by Urs is interesting, but only
in an academic sense. Meanwhile, back here in the real world, we don't
have any major hosts (or plugins?) which properly implement multiple stereo outs.

What's the problem? Is there confusion about the current spec? Does that
indicate that we should be simplifying the API, not making it more complex?

One of the things we're all proudest of in AU is the ability to have one plugin
support multiple I/O configurations, but the reality is that all we've achieved
the the absence of multiple stereo out plugins. From the user's point of
view, there is currently a distinct disadvantage to AU vs. VST. Let's first focus
on fixing that problem.

am in some sort of advocacy to encourage host developers to support the API as
it's written now. I'm not sure if adding more complexity to the API while
nobody has yet managed to get the 'simple case' right is the solution.
