It would be one way of getting control over feedback, with the only problem being the difficulty in matching the i/p and o/p to make sure the loop doesn't either get louder or quieter ehen the pedal's on bypass. If that were to work it would allow fading and replacing; added to the delay-based looping advantages previously discussed, it would give more functionality than regular JM looping, except for the use of multiple loops.
