on these parameters that are 7-8 bits, could we have an option (for those 
of us that are uber-geeks) to max out the resolution and use hex in the 
display... so the default, suitable for most users, would be:
 	0-99

but with an option to have:
 	0-80, or 0-FF

in either case, i'd *really* like MIDI CCs to be ~interpreted~ 
~internally~ as 7 bits, even of the display only handles 0-99.

another option would be using one of the dots in the display, and then 
using binary digits 0-99, then turn on a dot (to represent hundred) and go 
to 0-27.

if the bits are there, lets use them!
