The specification for the MidiDevice.open() from the javax.sound.midi
package does not declare security restrictions and permissions which are
cause of SecurityException. I guess that javax.sound.sampled.AudioPermission
may be used for this purpose. This should be explicitly declared in the spec.
AudioPermission spec declares two target names "play" and "record". But
some devices like sequencer should declare throwing SecurityException in the
related method startRecording() when "record" permission is denied.

This bug may lead to failure of new JCK test:
api/javax_sound/midi/Sequencer/index.html#Record
