I'm guessing it would be better to for applications to use the native jack midi that way the transport and MMC time can be in sync. I wonder if there are timing issues when using a2jmidid, or if it's better to use the -X seq option as suggested. Oh well, it's time to experiment a bit. BTW, aconnect is what I'm looking for. I'll wrap if in a script to re(a)connect the midi connections if an application were to crash.
