When I make a Motion Effect containing an FxPlug, it appears that it
only stores parameters which have been changed from the default value.
Is that expected behavior?
This is a really bad idea. Consider the following case:
1. User creates a Motion Effect with version 1 of my plugin. They leave
parameter X at the default value.
2. I release version 2 of my plugin, in which I've changed the default
value of X to something nicer.
3. User installs version 2, and their Motion Effect now renders differently.
In effect, it means we can never change parameter default values if we
want to keep backward compatibility. If you store all the parameters in
the Motion Effect it's guaranteed to render consistently even if the
FxPlug changes default values underneath it.
