jackd does not guarantee that you wont get XRUNs when you start jack apps,
it does some non-realtime things when you connect or disconnect apps.

Can you keep pestering me about that zipper noise bug? It wont take me
long to fix, I just  need to remember it needs doing when I have free
time.

I really need to set up some kind of bugtracking thing for swh-plugins,
but its not that easy, because of the hundreds of small lumps of code, and
installing and hacking something it will cut into valuable bugfixing time
:-/ I was hoping to use some kind of modular wiki, so I can embedd a wiki
block in some online docs, with some way to indicate bugs, but the only
really modular one I've come across was written in JSP :(
