Yes, I'm talking about reverse notifications: I don't see why we could "notify" correct integer values (i.e. rounded values) to fx knobs but not in automation lanes.
whatsup, be carefull with VST comparison: very few VST do so! Among them, for ex., reaVocode's param "Bands" is correctly reported as an integer in automation lanes and it's a fader (however it does not impact automation curves, like JS can do through dropdowns). The same goes for reaVerb's "FFT Max" param, discrete values (dropdown) but no impact on the curve...
well, there're some weird things here... inconsistencies, at least. I can "live with it" (priority 9), it's perhaps a design stuff beyond our mortal perception but I'd like a dev feedback about that...
[EDIT] -for VSTs- schwa details lot of things here:
