I think jack-over-eth would be most useful for using seperate machines
to take off the DSP load and send the audio back to the master machine
which would have the audio interface (like that VST powercore stuff).
That way you could run a big expensive synth on another machine and just
have it send it's outputs back via jack (so really you wouldn't even
know it's running on another machine - just another jack port)
I'm sure someone out there would have a use for syncing cards over the
network, but personally I can't think of a reason it'd be useful, and
it's certainly not worth the effort (if it's possible at all, which I
doubt)
