Modules.. It was thought as a replacement for the "Effects" menu item in 
the current gui. Kind of the same as in the QT designer.

Yes, i talked with Martin too about that. It would mean to only show 
certain parameters in the area i descripted as "graph areas"...the most 
important ones that is of  course. In a very advanced version it might 
be nice to be able as a plugin coder to mark those parameters somehow 
and to give the user the possibility to switch between graph and the 
simplified view.
However, this is subject to discussion as I'm not sure where to put this 
"marking" at the moment :)
