jackd autolanched by libjack is not less a daemon. It is detached. Only

you miss the log file. I.e. if jack server is autostarted by launching

jackd when jack application is started you get no feedback from jack

server unless you start all applications from commandline so you can see

the stdout. I thing this is fundamentally wrong. Also fundamentally

wrong is to reinvent the wheel (dbus in this case).

jackd parameters are read by libjack when jackd is launched.
So do you want want jackd to read settings or not? Are you opposed just

to jackd writting the settings file not to reading it?
