Does it really matter what a non electronic / synth instrument does
or is capable of modulation wise?  Certainly, it is valuable to study
this, but an LFO can have an output stage with _adjustable_ 
amplitude, phase reversal, and offset to allow
the "patcher" to create whatever effect is desired.  This kind of
modulation source would allow for more _or_ less "natural" kinds
of modulation.  But more to the point, I think it's good that it
can be non-natural.  After all, if I want a guitar sound, well, I
pick up a guitar...  Electronics lends itself so well to making things
"adjustable".  That's one reason why it's fun, eh?  So add another knob.
