Sure, that's just there mainly for MIDI-like program compatibility.
Another way of doing that is to be able to associate an arbitrary
trigger event with a preset (since we have vocab for describing MIDI),
but it's probably better not to tie it specifically to MIDI since the
numbers could be used elsewhere anyway.

The bank could have an index as well.
