I just got hold of a Faderport and I'm so pleased with how easy it is to set up and use in Reaper - thank you everyone who's worked on this project!

I really prefer to have all my changes visible on-screen, which means I like to have the FX UI open when I'm making changes e.g. with FX mode. However, FX mode doesn't interact with the UI much at all - meaning I have to:

1. Open the UI for the FX I want to control
2. Select the same FX again on the Faderport in FX mode
3. Click the parameter I want to edit (and Faderport will pick this up automatically, but only if I've done step 2)

Step 2 feels redundant in an ideal world. It would be great if either:

* Faderport's FX mode automatically selected the currently-selected FX (effectively making step 2 happen automatically as part of step 1)
* Faderport's automatic detection of clicked FX parameter could work even if a different FX plugin is selected currently (effectively making step 2 happen automatically as part of step 3)

Is anyone actively developing this driver still? Would the above be easy to do? (Or am I missing something and in fact it's already possible?)
