Just so I understand, the practical result of this is that I can use
an audio application which lacks jack support (perhaps iTunes?) and
send its audio output to jackd?

on OS X, any application that uses CoreAudio for audio I/O (which basically means every application except JACK native ones) can use JACK as its input and/or output device. configuring this is generally trivial.

on Windows, any application that uses ASIO for audio I/O (which basically means most pro-audio/music creation applications) can use JACK as its input and/or output device. configuring this is generally easy.

on Linux, any application that uses GStreamer (or a layer above it), ffmeg, the regular ALSA PCM API or PulseAudio's audio API can use JACK as its input/output device. configuring this can range from easy to quite tricky.
