Plugin settings are lost/garbled when plugin order is changed #52

It seems that moving plugins up and down in the list (using "Move Up" / "Move Down" in the plugin item menu) makes plugin lose their configuration (say, FabFilter's compressor ended up with setting values all over the place - not default, nor ones I've configured it to - after I've moved another plugin above it). Anyone can confirm?

The settings -within- each plug appear to stay consistent, but they don't actually persist, in my experience. It'll show your preset as being selected, but it's actually the default preset that is being applied.

For example, if I restart Light Host, then open plugins, then open FabFilter, I have to click the dropdown menu and select my saved preset, even though it appears to already be selected, for it to actually take effect. In reality the actual effect being put onto the audio is whatever the default preset is for that plugin. I just have to go through and open every single plugin and click my preset of choice, after a restart.
