I could be wrong about this, but I seem to recall Stephane Letz, one of
MidiShare's contributors and a colleage of its main author, telling
me/us that MidiSare did *not* lends itself particularly well to
integration into JACK.

AFAIK, MidiShare's goals are pretty much identical to the ALSA
"Sequencer", it just accomplishes them better. I don't believe that the
notion of sample-accurate MIDI handling within a processing graph that
is run in common with audio is part of its goalset.
