note, that this is the behaviour we had (0.43) and it broke quite a
lot of things.
especially, starting and shutting down the jack *client* takes some
time, and attaching that to [; pd dsp 1/0( is a bad idea (e.g. when
doing dynamic patching, you would usually turn off the dsp before
creating a few signal-objects, and then turn it on again...so Pd only
has to recompute the DSP-graph once; if this would also mean
power-cycling the jack connection, yo get loads of dropouts)
