Add independent switch to show Note On (zero velocity) as Note Off #70

Currently the only way to show Note On (0 velocity) events, as they really are, is to turn on "Expert Mode". That has other ramifications like showing events as hex.

Just make separate switches for everything under Expert Mode.

I haven't ever encountered a Note On event with 0 velocity. Even with velocity sensitive keyboards like a seaboard, I can't seem to come across any times where a Note On event with 0 velocity is ever sent in expert mode.

Is there a particular tool or instrument you use that has such note on events?

It's fairly common, at least with older devices. I just tried with my Korg Wavestation (circa 1990) and it sends note-offs as note-on with zero velocity (hex 9x xx 00).

Here's a good explanation for why.
