Well I use mixed approach, hide things for unexperienced users and make
it just work, while still allow diagnostics using log file, process list,
etc for advanced users.
Main purpose is not to make it easy for unexperienced users, but to make
it more usable for advanced users, i.e. log file and separate control
interface. The ease of use for unexperienced users comes with tools that
are (already!) built upon the control/monitor interface.

Can you
explain what you mean by solving things at desktop level?
By 'desktop level' I mean that level of a system that tries to be
friendly to users who don't know what they are doing, by hiding
reality and by trying to guess what they want and getting it wrong
most of the time :-) The typical Windoze / KDE / Gnome thing.
If this exercise of making jackd use dbus goes in that direction,
I'll resist :-)
