The biggest hassle I have with saving setups, is auto-save. Things change, and get saved, and I didn't want them to be. I don't recall if that happened with LASH, but I suspect it might have once, and if so it would explain why I swore off it forever after that.

If the new JACK session feature only saves things when I ask it to, then sure, that could be useful. Even better if it saves its state in a format that is human-readable and can be diff'ed, or put into git for versioning.
