No problem, I'm glad to help.

However, please note that there's a bit of utopia in my explanations, because
AFAIK there are quite a few apps out there which neither support JACK Midi (only
ALSA), nor deal or even care about the BBT and BPM info from the jack transport
position.

So you may need to be more specific about which other software you want your app
to interact with, to make a definitive decision about ALSA Midi support, etc...

That said, JACK Midi is indeed truly smart IMO.
