Great statement! :-)

I am really looking forward to this. Two feature requests:

1) The ability to modulate between two or more wavetables.
2) Whole patch randomizer.

Couldn't agree more. There are some things that can only be accomplished 
with audio programming languages (both visual and text-based, the latter 
will always be more versatile and expressive IMO, but maybe less 
inspiring). And it 's also true that sometimes you just want to pick up 
a synth and tweak the knobs for instant gratification/inspiration.

All the best,
