It sounds a bit too specific - I'd rather see a node with a single MIDI
input (and possibly a control input to select the program number) and a
single audio output, where the audio output signal is a gate that is
controlled by MIDI PCs. Then it could be used with a mixer plugin or
some signal logic to create the effect/bypass thing.

Not that I would be opposed to anyone writing a plugin like the one you
described, of course.
