The fact that jackd has a --foobar option does not mean that a GUI front end for jackd should expose it. The developers of JACK were/are hackers/tinkerers and were egged on by other hackers/tinkerers to make as many things possible as we could. This might be good for hackers/tinkerers but it doesn't make it good for most users.

Open your jack1 code. Add shortened words to that effect on
 each experimental command-line option you want. Push. Done.

QJackctl team then then adds an "Experimental" tab, and moves
 option items to it, that you marked so, or hides them completely -
 it's their decision.

Advanced tab = "Yeah, you might need these."
Experimental tab = "Hands off, fool!"

Problem solved. Everyone happy. No?

    Ah, you want the "not nice" setting.

        Maybe there are other ways to get there.

             I find that response surprising, unhelpful and quite wrong.

             How can anyone discover whether they need to use a feature
        if nobody
             will tell
             them what it does?
             How does one become 'advanced'?

             Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
             Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
