Such a node's only function is to emit a parameter-driven value.  In essence it's no more than a Node wrapping an AudioParam -- in fact, it could be named AudioParamSourceNode, by analogy with AudioBufferSourceNode.  Such a node can serve as both a unity source, a non-unity source, an envelope, or whatever.

It's OK, this is not something I care about much at all; happy to write the extra few lines of code.  Hence my conditional statement "If we extend the API in this direction in the future…"
