If you only need to select your interface once then that means one of two things- you either only use one audio interface with your machine or you don't use any USB audio devices. I have noticed that USB audio devices get enumerated differently pretty much every boot if you have more than one device plugged in and for whatever reason non-audio but USB MIDI devices such as MIDI controllers get involved in this enumeration so I personally use qjackctl's interface selection option as much as I do Start and Stop.
My suggestion about the other settings is up for debate and I'm not so concerned about those but I'd like to hear what Rui and others think of highlighting the interface selector by making it available on the main window. I expect anyone who makes frequent use of external audio devices with JACK will think this makes good sense.
