IMHO I don't see a reason to merge both into one SlackBuild.
I would say that JACK users are well aware that two versions exist and
this is also a decision from the upstream maintainers and those who
don't use JACK won't use it as it is may just a hard dependency from the
maintainer.
Also, both versions quite differ on some situations as you've stated
with the link to the JACK FAQ. It's not just a question of
dependencies.
