it starts it the way you started it last time!
 

It would be better if this information was available in a function in libjack so that
clients can show what's happening.

what information?
 

Yes. First you imagine what would be perfect. Later we can worry about reality.

I don't anything perfect about jack_lsp popping up a GUI dialog to configure a server. I don't see anything good about a careful constructed GUI application having to deal with the reality of a new dialog being created. this isn't even close to perfect.

what problem are you actually concerned with fixing? what users does it affect? when?
