Pneumatic Restrictions & Improvments

I would like to be able to use mufflers. Please. It is a small purely aesthetic change but high flow vent caps on the solenoid manifolds ensure that nothing gets inside. And a high flow muffler on the manual pressure release vent plug just helps keep sound down and makes sure there isn't a blast of air blowing stuff around whenever you dump pressure.

If would be nice if the pneumatic rules were just slightly more clarified and consistent. Things like ball valves, can they be used or not? or can they only be used as the main pressure dump?

There is also an entire world of pneumatic logic that hasn't been particularly capitalized on.
