2. It feels like a server configuration protocol will stabilize faster if clients also can function as serverssince more code is using it, not just qjackctl.the server configuration protocol has existed for nearly 8 years. almost nobody has chosen to use it, for anything at all. jackdbus is more or less its only use case.
It works, but the more components you glue together, the higher the chance is for somethingto fail. For instance didn't the messages window in the windows version of qjackctl show anythingcoming from jackd until autumn 2015.that has to do with windows and qjackctl, not with jackd.
