I don't know about machinekit, but in linuxcnc incremental jogs are safer than continuous jogs in high latency situations like these.

Same behavior with machinekit.
This is one of the motivations I have for adding physical jog wheels on my machines.

Boy, I'll tell you, once I put a jog dial on my mill, I would NEVER want to be without it! We have this hideous Levil thing at work, and you are stuck with a finger pad on a laptop, and it goes and jogs without command all the time! I machine to top to clean up a face of a part all the time with the jog keys on my mill, but step down the Z with the jog dial. I can count out the clicks on the dial without looking. Very nice.
