That way your favourite
music player can have an output plugin that looks for jack and if that is not
running, looks for pulse and finally choose direct alsa for playback...
Have fun,

I don't see why jack needs to be splitted for this, it works just fine
with jack installed in a single package. Example Audioplayer: Aqualung
In general it seems to be a matter of taste, and while debian folk sees
benefits in it others simply don't think it's worth the trouble.
IMHO it simply shouldn't get in the way. And a package management system
shouldn't get in the way of programs and users.
