should an AU plugin be able to expect to open a GUI window whenever it
is loaded by the host? we have a trace in front of us from an Native
Instruments plugin that suggests that it is attempting to open a GUI
of some kind, but the host (Ardour/Mixbus) is just probing plugins in
its backend and so far does not have its own windows established yet.
given that the host could potentially not even have established a
relationship with the display server at the time of probing plugins,
is it appropriate for a plugin to be attempting GUI tasks from inside
its main entry point?

ps. the trace:
