Hm, of course, if a program behaves this way, it's not as good
as it could be.
But let's take a single desktop computer (or even notebook)
which gets used as softsynth or sequencer.
A program could remember the last used connections (even if
these have been made with aconnect or qjckctl) and reconnect
automatically.
Of course, these bindings should appear in aconnect or
jackconnect and it should be possible to change it there.
If there are any apps which do not behave this way, why not
politely contact the author and ask if it couldn't be
changed? Probably the author has never has been in need to do
so so he simply didn't think about it.
Best regards
