Ok for play back, but I think for capturing it would be good to have the peak 
meter integrated into the track panel to keep the focus?!?
Another helpful feature would be to have the ability to directly change the 
input level using a JMB shortcut from inside Protux. Is this possible?

So finally I would suggest to leave this (VU meter) as a user option!?!
And if a user want to have this feature then he just have to enable this in 
global properties. RFC
