For me, _not_ depending on Jack and _not_ trying to manage Jack
itself (except for making connections between managed apps) are
really essential requirements for a session manager.

The first because apps that don't use Jack should be able to
be 'full members' of a session.

The second because in all setups I run there are some Jack apps
which are logically not part of the session, they just run all
the time. Starting a new session should not affect them - ever.

There is zero chance that will ever add JS support to any of
my apps. But I'm seriously considering NSM now.
