Wait, forget what I said!  I think that some changes ARE necessary (as I
state above); but I don't agree with Ronald's proposed change.  This is
because very often I'll be editing a parameter in the MD while I'm
setting up a parameter to be changed in the MM.  This "setting up"
sometimes requires that I switch the active track to the desired one.
And I can't do that with one hand if FUNCTION+TRACK pressing is required
to change tracks.

So the proposed change is really giving up one evil for another.  Maybe
some sort of stick FUNCTION key would work.  Or, like Damon proposed,
double-clicking the FUNCTION key to make it sticky.  Then you could
change your track mutes and have them take effect once you press
FUNCTION again.
