There is nothing wrong with the LV2 docs. I don't consider myself a
professional programmer (I'm an EE really, just need to write software
at times), but I found it quite easy to wrap my head around it.

What is really missing from LV2 is a standard way for plugins to
persistently save their own instance data. In essence, what is needed
is that the host provide the plugin with an "instance key" of some
kind (guaranteed by the host to uniquely, persistently identify that
particular plugin instance) so the plugin could save/restore whatever
data it needs based on that key.
