OK, now I see your problem - I missed the 'alsa' in your description
of an app connecting to Jack, and was assuming a Jack app making
unwanted connections.

AFAICS, the syntax of the ALSA jack plugin specifies the ports to
connect to, and not the app's own ports which remain unknown. In
that case I don't see any solution. It's just bad design in the
sense that it missed a chance to be more general and configurable.

Not that I know.
