I've been thinking about this (perhaps too much!) and you gotta wonder why Brad Wright removed that scene from Trio. As Joe Mallozzi's hinted, I suspect that BW wants these two to come together under BW's terms.
Now, do I think they've been dating? Probably. But even within that Trio scene, Sam seems hesitant to admit who she's dating. This makes me suspect that Sam and Jack are keeping things under wraps. Knowing Jack's character as well as we do, I have to wonder if he's uncomfortable with either a) people getting the wrong idea because he doesn't want Sam's career questioned, or b) his own insecurities due to his past with Sara and how that blew up in his face.
So again, yes - I think they're dating. But no, I don't think they're 'together' in the soulful way they should be. And quite frankly, that's good, IMHO. I want that final connection to happen in front of my eyes (i.e. on screen in the 3rd film). I want to SEE Jack make the final realization of just how important the two of them are to him, to her (and heck! to us, too!). I want Teal'c to nudge him, I want Daniel to not know and then I want to see his happy surprise when he finds out. In other words, I want to see the discovery.
Otherwise, all the fun of this amazing duo is just gone.
Again, this is just my opinion. For what it's worth.
