--- Comment #2 from David Dorwin <ddorwin@google.com> ---
Web MIDI fires [1]:
* Events named "connect" and "disconnect" using the type MIDIConnectionEvent at
MIDIAccess objects.
* An event named "disconnect" using the type MIDIConnectionEvent at MIDIPort.
* An event named "midimessage" using the type MIDIMessageEvent at MIDIInput.

The first two are "common" event names with custom event types. The last is a
specific event name for a custom event type. Perhaps this is specifically to
avoid the issue with MessageEvent, but it seems odd to special case this name
and type rather than "scope" all event names using custom types.

[1] Search for "fire " in http://webaudio.github.io/web-midi-api/
