Now, just to make sure I understand: this is for people who are using released versions of jackd that *do* suppport JACK MIDI (i.e 0.103.0), but aren't using the lastest jackd from SVN which has suport for the -X option to do this functionality within jackd, correct?

Once there's a new jackd release, with the -X option, will this too be needed anymore?
