In deed it is good, but what about it. I know that several good apps can do it. Either via direct commandline switch or in Fluidsynths case, via setting an internal variable, also via commandline switch. There are a couple of apps, that don't do it, but sometimes there's only need for one of them at a time and so a fixed name is quite allright or others work methodicaly using an index for each new start, which is OK as well, if you respect the time when to start what. I admit a few apps are beastly, in that they use PIDs (process IDs) to make up the JACK client name, mplayer is such an example and I never got round to changing it. I doubt whether in this case there is a way of doing so.
