With the new release is it still possible to

This is sort of essential to the way I use qjackctl today.
all positive but "terminate qjackctl and leave the jackd rumning"...
iif jackd was started from under qjackctl, it will get killed upon
qjackctl destruction--this is one side-effect since qjackctl has
migrated to qt4 (qjackctl >= 0.3.0) so it's not kind of a
mis-feature of this particular release. it's been there for quite a
couple of years now (shrug:)
The use case is about a jackd that was *not* started
by qjackctl. Release 0.3.4 does the right thing, I
just hope 0.3.5 does the same.
The other case, starting a jackd from qjackctl and
leave it running when qjackctl exits would be useful
as well, and earlier versions could do this. But I
remember your comment about qt4's subprocess class
making this impossible. Damn qt4.
BTW a non-qt version of qjackctl would be welcome.
This works if you send it a SIGTERM or SIGKILL, I think killall does
exactly that.
Not the way it's intended to work and both seems to cause an xruns,
but it works.
