I have tested it extensively and found, that the buffers need to be
incredible high - 2048 worked for me :| the internal buffer size in lmms
needs to be set exactly the same. With that you even have a clearly
recognizable delay when doing stuff in the piano roll let alone playing
a keyboard.
And still it works not as stable as with alsa...
I met the lmms people at a fair here in Germ and I cannot remember
seeing them use jackd. They really designed lmms to be a single suite
running with alsa without a need to interact with other jack-apps.

So coming up with some good practical reasons to have lmms integrated in
jackd running with acceptable latencies and asking them for it on IRC
could be reasonable.
