Hi James

In guitarix we check if the client is called with a given UUID, and
store the result. Depend on, if the UUID is empty or not, we avoid self
connections and store/read presets from the default or the jack_session
path. So yes, the app know if it is under session control or not.

Well, for local testing purpose out of my source path, I have added the
path, otherwise, we give only the (exe)client name and assume that the
app is installed in $PATH.
