There is a fine balance between complete and bloated.
Still you can do as many as you want using the automation feature of your host. Like automating Spread in Pan or Offset in FX pages or any other FX parameter.
bloat... hmmm... not sure I'd agree with you there that extending the modulation possibilities as suggested constitutes bloat. I'm not exactly suggesting lfos modulating lfos here... nothing more complex than the teeny weeny little 'rate' and 'depth' dials that already exist in the GUI vocabulary, and would easily fit in the locations I suggested.
as you rightly point out, I can use midi...and I am. However when I create a nice combination of plugin settings + midi input ... it would be so much better for the user, i.e me, if this could be saved as a preset within the plugin - rather than exporting/importing midi files, going through midi learn (if the host allows it), etc etc .... for each and every project I'd like to use the setup on.
This is why plugins have presets, and internal modulation in the first place... to save the end-user this kind of hassle and time.
it's funny that you'd throw so much cpu at a glorified bit crusher effect, and yet come all bloat-philosophical about something as infinitely more useful and musical as rudimentary modulation. priorities...
