very much depends on the structure of the synth itself. We would have to
redesign a few things here and there to get a save state to work on a plugin
that hasn't been fully initialised.

inefficient in what way? it might take a little longer to open, but
certainly no more than the VST version takes.

OK

Is there a SetSampleRate as well?

Try running the Kontakt 2 demo in Cubase SX for a bit. That "You have XXX
days" dialog that halts Cubase's entire startup procedure until you click OK
is an excellent example. Or Reaktor 3 bitching about not having its dongle
plugged in, or....the list goes on :-)

Yup.
