Is it actually useful? The main purpose of limiting these days is
to prevent digital overs. Only a full-frequency-band limiter is
able to do this. Any multi band limiting would have to be in addition
to the existing full band limiter.

Personally I could dispense with the existing stereo width
control as I never use it, although I realise some people find
it useful.

Doesn't the Boost control add harmonics already? (That's what an
aural exciter does).

There's a risk of bloat every time a new feature is added. Jamin has
just about the perfect feature set IMHO. It would be a shame to load it
down with seldom-used bells and whistles. Perhaps a compile option
allowing only the required feature set to be compiled would be a way
round it.
