As an alternative setup, couldn't an environment be made with just one Virus Instrument channel and a "Multi-Instrument"? This would make it easier to see which tracks are playing what, independent of each other, as well as provide mute/solo, pan, and level.

Not sure why Access chose the Setup config it did for Logic, while Live and Pro Tools both use the "alternative setup" i just described. In fact, I don't really see any advantage to the way Access suggests the TI VCC be setup in Logic, other than it allows one to apply automation data on each track/channel, instead of only on the channel the VCC is inserted on.
not sure if i understand you right. apple doesn't recommend to use environment instruments sending data to an audio instrument. from the top of my head, i can't remember why, but we ran into some problems trying this years ago. if you (in logic 8.02) just create a multi channel instrument, automation of individual channels shouldn't be a problem - at least i don't see one.
