Interesting idea...
In pattern edit, you can force a reset, or step an extra step forward using
the 'sync' softkey, but there's no method in play mode to mess with pattern
positions across all tracks.
Seems like it would really need endless encoders to do it in the same way as
the Notron.
So it's really a question of how it would be implemented in the UI.
At the moment, RUN + <track> allows you to tweak pattern directions
dynamically, but I don't think that's documented, so maybe no-one uses it. I
could always re-assign that to pattern reset, or manual step advance.
I shall put it on my list of things to ponder ;-)
