It's amazing how many people will just outright say there has never been any Sam/Jack UST in canon,
hehe *bwg* I would say just that! *g*
I will put it this way...there have been moments that could be interpreted as UST between Sam/Jack, but I don't see it as canon--just as a perception, an interpretation that anyone is free to make. I think there have been just as many Daniel/Jack moments that could be interpreted as UST and I don't see that as canon either. I think that because Sam and Jack are male/female, more people are inclined to perceive their interaction as UST.
As you mentioned, the scene at the end of Death Knell was not shippy. It was gen. I didn't like it because it felt squicky to me, but even if one saw chemistry between Sam/Jack that scene wasn't any more shippy than the hug between Daniel & Jack in Within the Serpent's Grasp or the hug in Need.
I think that any and all UST between Sam and Jack is open to the same interpretation.
