Standard version: 1.4

Minor Change

The kOfxParamPropPluginMayWrite is redundant and not used in practice. 

However it was mentioned that it was not clear where parameters can be writen. In general, parameters are read-only everywhere except in descriptor and instance changed.

We might potentially need a property on an host that indicates whether it will allow a plugin to set values on params, and plugins can work around that. I’m not convinced we need that. Also note there is a mechanism to return a status if one attempts to write a parameter and hosts does not support that. 

/** @brief Flags whether the plugin will attempt to set the value of a parameter in some callback or analysis pass

1. Type - int x 1
2. Property Set - plugin parameter descriptor (read/write) and instance (read only)
3. Default - 0
4. Valid Values - 0 or 1

This is used to tell the host whether the plug-in is going to attempt to set the value of the parameter. */
