Today I've been working on splitting off the LASH code into separate
source files (fluid_lash.c/fluid_lash.h) and providing support for both
LADCCA and LASH.  LASH will override LADCCA if both are detected at
configure time.  The FluidSynth settings options will be the same for
both, that is "lash.enable" for example.  Does this sound good?  I've
never used LASH with FluidSynth, does it provide a fairly restore-able
session experience currently?  I'd like to add support for this to Swami
at some point.  Best regards,
        Josh Green
