I'll say this as well. Even when there is a display (as per the Icon QCon Pro). Its still not that good because a lot of plugs have lots of parameters, the names have to be shortened, and spread across multiple pages. So it still takes 3-4 times as long to find the correct knob, than it does to just do it with the mouse. So other than to pan I don't use them.

I recently bought a Griffin Powermate and that I find is a much better solution, for plugin control, as you just hover the mouse over the parameter then turn the Griffin to adjust it. Pretty quick and intuitive. It's also only about 50-60 dollars or pounds. So quite cheap too. So far works with all my plugs. See attached pic for how I have things laid out.
