+Vamp::HostExt::PluginBufferingAdapter provides a means for hosts to
+avoid having to negotiate the input step and block size, instead
+permitting the host to use any block size they desire (and a step size
+equal to it).  This is particularly useful for "streaming" hosts that
+cannot seek backwards in the input audio stream and so would otherwise
+need to implement an additional buffer to support step sizes smaller

 The PluginLoader class can also use the input domain and channel
 adapters automatically to make the entire conversion process
 transparent to the host if required.
