Well, keep lookin', if you happen to be messing around in that
area.  I'm not yet persuaded that it's impossible.  (I'm also not
yet completely persuaded of the necessity to run the sequencer as
root just because jackd is run as root -- not that I actively
dispute it, just that I haven't seen any concrete information
about how permissions work in relation to communication through
shared memory.  I have seen Paul Davis say that this is so, but
I don't recall him giving references either.)

Ah... actually, of course the text in that Bugzilla report that I
filed is out of date now, isn't it?  It was written under the
assumption that DCOP was used for all the communication between
the GUI and the sequencer, and that's no longer the case.  Can we
do the new-style comms with the two processes running as different
users?  A definitive answer to that would presumably be one to
the jackd question as well.
