My biggest issue with it is IF JACK IS BONING DANIEL, THAT MAKES HIM BISEXUAL, NOT GAY. Because he never stops liking ~the ladies.
Oh, yes THIS!
As you know, I'm a Sam/Jack shipper, and there is plenty of canon support for those two flirting, straight through to plans for the third movie, and based on what AT and RDA have to say about how they played it. If you don't like the pairing, and think they have all the chemistry together of anemic half-dried slugs, it is still canon. So unless you go AU, it's there.
I've heard in more than one interview that both MS, and to a greater degree RDA were initially upset that people were shipping their characters. I don't think it was because they had not "evolved", indeed there are interviews out there that make it pretty clear that this was not the case. I'm betting that it was simply a case of "We weren't playing it that way. WTF! Where are they getting that?" The same interviews that say they were initially upset, say that they began to play up those moments, in part because it amused them, and in part as a gift to those fans. So if people want to see that, it's there. Deliberately. I'm a Sam/Jack shipper, but I admit it's there. People who are Jack/Daniel shippers have actual deliberately placed screen moments to squee over.
In one of the commentaries one of the directors (I think it was Peter DeLouise) points out in an infirmary scene, how RDA is reflexively checking out the female extra playing a nurse in an infirmary scene. There's another scene (when General Bauer is being introduced to the SGC) where apparently the female extra parading by the ranks of SGC personnel winks at RDA as she passes, on the side that cannot be seen on camera. He looks startled, and checks her out as she passes him. As you look for it, these moments are caught on film often.
So even if one wants a personal fanon where since DADT was removed, Daniel and Jack have wed, and are now using info from the Asgard core to experience mpreg and bear and raise a baker's dozen of assbabies, it would be hard to argue that they weren't two happily married bi-guys.
