the infrastructure for backends is a bit more complex than for clients. but otherwise, it's a perfectly reasonable thing to work on.... but ... not portable across JACK implementations (which may or may not be important).

I'm not sure why everyone is dancing around the obvious answer:  what the
original poster seems to want is a new backend.  Is that really difficult?
 It sounds like he wants something that is just very simple, tailored
exactly to the hardware he has, without some of the complexity that comes
along with ALSA.  Is that an unreasonable thing to work on?
