Thank you everyone for your feedback.

We realize that adding a new API is something to be considered very
carefully and know that we need to get general WebKit buy-in before
proceeding with any development here.  It's very true that each new
feature has its costs and benefits.  I do hope we can have some good
discussions about the idea in all its different facets, because it's
being taken very seriously in the public-audio working group:

http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/WD-webmidi-20121025/.

The API proposal is still in draft stage, of course.
