Speaking of PipeWire as a potential JACK replacement, what's the status 
of JACK Transport? there are hints in the FAQ [1] and an old version of 
the Wiki [2]

Am I the only one thinking that coupled with the more 'obvious' 
inter-connect-ability of any (jack-enabled) application, JACK transport 
is still a _really_ cool feature and one of the reasons I (maybe also 
other people) really like doing music/audio with Linux, i.e. using 'any' 
application you prefer to do a certain part of the job in both more 
traditional and experimental creative set-ups?
