The important thing is that it must be possible to tell an app *once and for all* not to auto connect. On a more general level, a connection is (almost) always between two different things. This alone should be enough to consider connections to be something that no single app should ever decide for itself - there is always another side that should have the same weight in the decision. Since jack's design does not allow apps to refuse a connection, the decent thing to do for an app is not to connect.
