Sorry, I think I'm having trouble with my mail reader -
 darn Thunderbird, cuts off lines sometimes.
I missed the second half of your reply - the part
 which logically proceeds to tell us which options
 should not be exposed.

    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.
