   The idea was to allow rosegarden to allocate channels as needed on a 
synth to make it appear as if there were more than 16.

   In practice, it was a rather complicated change to the code that 
wasn't fully tested before it was merged.

   You can achieve the same effect manually by including bank 
switch/program changes at the beginning of your segments.

   We could remove that combobox and only make it appear based on an 
experimental preference.  That would be less confusing.  If no one 
objects.  Votes for/against would be helpful.

   Input from anyone who currently uses "Auto" mode on a regular basis 
would also be helpful.
