Encoder wheel numbers in OSC?

I was trying to rework the BitFocus Companion module to support the v3 format, and while I was at it I thought I'd try to expose the encoder wheel information. But after playing around a bit it seems that the wheel numbers jump around on different fixture types. Bummer. I guess the best to be done, then, would be to instead build a whole separate numbering system and hope that the wheel label field could be parsed/interpreted reliably to translate into the variables presented to Companion. I just thought it would be nice using a StreamDeck+ for the encoder wheels, using the buttons to jump to different sets of encoders, if the display could show the value. It works for intensity which seems to stay at wheel_1 based on at least a few fixtures I tried, but other values are jumping all over.

Is there another approach?
