Without asking you to personally commit to anything is there a theoretical
possibility that it could be supported?

What do you estimate is the time/effort required?

Is it along the lines of adding a third party library, testing
specifically on an etch based distribution, then maintaining it across
jack1/2/3 or does it get more hairy than that?

I understand that everyone has a lot on their plate already so I am not
expecting or asking for you to add this task to your workload.
