What I'm about to do amounts to a massive generalisation, which is tricky.
Instead of having a fixed array-style layout, we want to accept arbitrary and mixed arguments.
Notably, we want to give the ''actual Library Plug-in'' a lot of leeway for binding:
- optionally, the library might want to require **Parameters** (which is the reason for this change)
- moreover, accepting input-buffers shall now be optional, since many generation functions do not need them
- and on top of all this, we want to accept an arbitrary mix of types for each kind.
So conceptually we are switching from C-style arrays to tuples with full type safety
