It would be really useful (to me anyway...) to add shelf filtering to the list of filters.

I agree, that would be fantastic!

Forgive my ignorance, but what is the difference between using a shelf and adding the output of a high pass (or low pass) filter to the original signal (I realize it takes an extra element...) sonically?

I dunno. Are you saying it's the same, sonically?

Well, I think so, but I suppose it has to with the attenuation curve of the high pass filter: the high pass is 12db/octave, the crossover element, on the other hand is 24db/octave. a shallower curve, of 6db or 3 db might sound less pronounced, and I think those curves would be possible, though my math isn't good enough to figure out how!
