The semantics if a Midi Through port is simple: anything received by the

If you make several connections from other ports to a through port, the
data is indeed merged.
If you make several connections from a through port to other ports, the
received data is copied to all ports.
These ports aren't used that much in practice because any ALSA sequencer
port that allows connections allows any number of them.

Ome thing I have many times wondered, what is the semantics of those
Midi Through ports? In hardware those would be replications of Midi
Input to some other hardware device, and on output you would never see
them ... Is it supposed to be some kind of Midi Merge or what is it?
