Makes me wondering, is this tool doing anything 'nasty' in the view of 
JackSession developers, for either apps with or without state? All 
though the tool seems to be useful, it shouldn't slow down the 
implementation of JackSession in the applications of course ... An app 
with JackSession is by far more preferable then this kind of 'hacks'.
