Yes, it should work like this. This is the main feature of this update... : P
When you create a MIDI track from a preset, mixer insert is even renamed (try it your self),
the problem is that it's not linked afterwards (it should be, just like for example 3x osc and other synths are).
Why everyone here assume I'm wrong, and try to prove it to me without any research xd

 

then show us where it says that this is possible, cause it could be me but the midi out plugin is NOT a soundgenerator, the other plugins are and you can set a mixer track to those, the midi out plugin generates no sound so you cant set it to a mixer channel, this is not ableton
