fluidXtra, by Antoine Schmitt is using this interface http://www.schmittmachine.com/fluidXtra.html fluidXtra is listed in our applications page http://fluidsynth.resonance.org/trac/wiki/Applications there was a thread on January about this matter http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/fluid-dev/2009-01/msg00066.html About your question: yes, Jack MIDI provides some sequencer functionality, but it requires Jack audio daemon running, because it uses the Jack audio buffers sample count for timing. Another available MIDI sequencer for Linux is the ALSA Sequencer. There are some more sequencer engines for Linux and other platforms. Having a platform independent sequencer integrated in FluidSynth has obvious advantages. It is a decision of the application developers to use it, or something else.
