Hm, Jack is defined as a low latency _audio server_.
While it would be great to have everything in the same package,
there is the issue that you should fight for separation of concerns :)
Sometimes it would be nice if sort had a feature to
prune duplicates, but hey thats what uniq is all about.
No one ever thought about integrating these two, right ?
As long as you try to make jack the perfect
audio interconnection tool, state saving protocols
and controller data simply do not have their
place in there and are as orthogonal to eachother
as uniq and sort.
This discussion was all about avoiding
big monolithic inflexible goo, so why
throw everything into jack now ?
