ALSA midi would be nice, as the Jack implementation seems complex and prone for error.

I can't really play the drums, so I expect to do a lot of midi editing anyway
Not sure that it is. The only thing is that you have to remember to make something bridge between ALSA and JACK type midi ports. With jack1 use -Xseq (ALSA sequencer support), and with JACK2 run "a2jmidid -e". As reaper so far only has JACK midi support, this will make reaper see the ALSA (physical) midi ports as JACK midi ports.
