Yes, this quick sketch was only for demonstrating orientation in window.
And position of spinboxes is quite wrong.
There is new and I hope, final sketch: [0]
1. "Show MIDI Settngs" checkbox added
2. Spin boxes are belogs to the corresponding staves.
> Internally, which object would be associated with a port/channel.

Let's consider:
1. We can have a piano Part with 3 staves: for right hand, left hand and
effects. Or even more staves for right and left hands. Why? Because on
concerts, when playing synthesizer (I mean physical keyboard) I have to
change tone/timbre and play different parts of the score with different
sounds. So, Part couldn't be associated with a port/channel.
2. But internally Staff object only describes how score should look (hope,
I understand it correctly). Instrument object describes, how score should
sound. So, port/channel should be associated with Instrument class (There
is already information about channel for internal synthesizer).

Added checkbox for the permanent, you can see it here: [0].
But I don't have a use case for managing channel and port for the internal
synth (If you have, write please). I think internal synth is the part of
program that should feel minimum influence from user.
If there is no proposals more, I should begin implementing this on Monday.
Channels and port in this window would control only external JACK
channel/port, not internal synth.
"Show MIDI Settngs" checkbox would be deleted.
