For now, it seems, you only have "control-parm" pairs in plugmaps, which would be, obviously, not enough to cover some non-basic mappings.
With this point of view, Klinke's xml plugmaps are perfect for the task.

I recommend you to watch other midi designer's videos on that channel. There's lots of info about the ways of mapping different parameters to the widgets.
One of the main goals of this project is simplicity.

What you are suggesting adds flexibility at the cost of added complexity.

I watched a few of those videos and and saw a lot of complexity and no real world use cases.

Do you have a use case that requires this approach, other than the articulation one you mention a few posts back ?

Even if we decide to add a different format for some reason, we will still provide the ability to use the simple format, which will likely get used over 99% of the time.
