jack is not usable at all for a normal end user. without a low-latency 
kernel there a pops and klicks everywhere. then jackd freezed my 
different debian installations several times (this may kernel related, 
but a user don't care when other programs don't freeze the machine). it 
consumes rediculous amounts of memory (jackd uses 11MB, pd without gui 
 1,2MB).

in general the idea  that pd is the audio server seems a little bit 
weird, but if it's useful in special cases, why not?
