Yes, but the two are related. Promiscuous mode only
makes sense if jackd is not started as the result of
some user login but as a system service.

Use cases:
- More than one user on the same system, each one
using part of the available HW/channels. Not likely
if you have just a stereo audio interface, but quite
a normal thing if you have 64 channels connected to
different parts of a installation.
- Changing users without interrupting operation,
as e.g. in broadcasting, or when part of the audio
processing is fixed and not dependent on the user.
all sound entirely justifiable to me. but this is about promiscuous
mode, not whether JACK is started by init, surely?
