There is *no* rationale at all for an X11 display uniqueness check.
It should *never* be enforced. There *may* be a rationale for not
having two qjackctk instances trying to control the same jackd, but
that is a compeletely different thing.

If you are going to work on command line options, *please*
add one that allows to select the jack server that qjackctl 
will connect to instead of just using an environment variable.
