MIDI clock and MIDI timecode are very different. MIDI clock is tempo related. MIDI timecode is just a linear representation of absolute time - like SMPTE. The reason modern sequencers are better with MTC than MIDI clock is because they are primarily working with WAV files, which always want to play back at the same rate. So they'd rather synchronise to an absolute time reference than a tempo clock which might vary. Timebase conversion from linear time to a preset tempo clock would be a fairly complex bit of coding, and not something there is scope for in the remaining space in P3 I'm afraid.
