i don't many comments on this overall idea, but i do find the notion
that a program wants to know about the internal state of JACK without
being a JACK client, and yet, unlike a simple shell script, is willing
to participate in a 2 way IPC protocol to find out a little .... odd.
also, please keep in mind that the basic semantics of OSC make
query:response interactions really rather tricky to implement in a
robust way. meaning that they will work in 98% of cases, and the other
2% will just either unfathomable and/or unfixable.
