no. JACK by default only allows connections from clients started by the same UID that started the server.

I'm afraid I don't understand exactly what you're asking.
<jokes> And no I don't see it being integrated </jokes>

Running JACK as a system wide daemon has downsides, and is a pretty
niche use case. I don't
see it becoming the standard as GStreamer / Phonon / PulseAudio and a
variety of other frameworks
already try to run a daemonized audio server. And I remove all of them
from my installs when I can :)

Since its only advanced users that will ever want to do this, I think
the config files fix above is fine.
My two cents, -Harry

Well, if you automatically have every user a member of the audio group, can't they all use JACK?
