I second that, but I also understand the devs' dilema i.e. to code or to explain?

What I do notice often is that a really valiant effort is made to teach landing on Mars without first showing how to hit escape-velocity back here in Earth orbit before leaving, if you know what I mean :-)))

Case in point, qjackctl: the assumption seems to be made that users are already familiar with hardware connections. "I" have NEVER connected any hardware other than my guitar fx_board into the sound-card 1/4" Line-In jack, so when "I" look at that fancy connections graph I wear the remaining hear of my head scratching it. TOTALLY lost, guesswork from beginning to end! 

My 2 cents, LOVE rosegarden btw.
