Remote scripts: Control current parameter in VST-plugin GUI?

When a control is clicked on in a VST-plugin GUI and automation is on the "selected" parameter is shown in an automation lane. Example Serum "A WTPos".

Is there a way to control this currently selected parameter with Remote Scripts?

I thought the LOMs selected parameter (song.view.selected_parameter) could be used for this but this parameter only seems to match the currently selected parameter in Ableton devices and the VST-parameters that have been "configured" and is visible in the PluginDevice, not the VST GUI.

The currently selected parameter is only applicable if it is configured in Live, otherwise Live doesn't see it regardless of you controlling it, similarly there's no automation of a non-configured parameter.

I don“t quite understand what you mean by "there's no automation of a non-configured parameter". Automation of a lot of VST parameters can be recorded by simply moving the corresponding control in the VST GUI. So some part of Live must surely know about the parameters?
