Hello Oliver,

Great job! All makes sense to me. I'll give it a try and see if I can
provide some useful feedback. Impressive roadmap. You might want to take
this one off the shelve: Fix jack sync bug/reset button <- possibly
fixed in 0.930
As it's not so much a fix but a workaround, seq24 still doesn't play
super nice with JACK transport. It can't be the transport master for
instance unless it's the only application using JACK transport.
