IMHO yes, indeed it is:

 * jack.record is a CLI-based application
 * time-machine is written with GTK+
 * jack-capture is CLI too (yeah, it also contains a script which
relies on zenity - means: GTK+ - to provide a rough graphical
interface)

QJackRcd would be the only tool for Qt4 users. Plus, it provides many
cool advanced silence processing features:

"QJackRcd is a simple stereo recorder for Jack with few features as
silence processing for automatic pause, file splitting, background
file post-processing.<br> It can be used with QJackCtl."

[...]

"Features:

   - QT simple GUI with disk usage and vumeter
   - Jack support for recording, jack transport support
   - Silence compressing with auto pause and optional file splitting
   - Background WAV post processing for format conversion and signal processing
   - Automatic connection with first launched jack source facility"

Jonas, thanks for the review and you're right: I'll improve the
description before uploading the package.
