no i won't say anything like that because i know you can run several
jackd server instances on the same machine, provided you name them
differently. then probably it's Paul turn to say that is what is
fundamentally broken in jackd, not quite on qjackctl's fault.

yes it counts as a second instance but the uniqueness is preserved as
the main window is set with a local X server property string which
includes the hostname of the remote X client.

so you'll probably be ok with ssh -X even though the single application
instance is enabled.
