Ahhh, RTFM...

As long as it's there, it's simple enough to use. I wouldn't bother too 
much with making the default configurable (unless you're feeling bored...).

Looking a bit more into the future, though, it would be good to be able 
to define or at least preview the mutes for another part *before* you 
actually make it active.

The most obvious implementation would be to set the mutes while the next 
part is waiting for the current one to finish the bar (-> while it's 
blinking). I don't quite see, though, how that would work with pattern 
chains. Another alternative would therefore be to hold down the part key 
while you mute/unmute the tracks.

Bye
