I don't think JACK should be complicated by defining autoconnect mechanisms in
there.
Applications should provide the option and configuration for it.
I think the proposals given for the app to ask upon first startup (either via
a GUI if the app has a graphical interface, or through command line interface
if not) to the user how you want to configure the behaviour is the clearest
way.
The configuration dialog can suggest the first hardware ports by default, if
that is the expected most common user case.
That way the user is aware that he can configure it, and can adapt the program
to her needs.
sincerely,
Marije
