"beta" might have been a better choice of words, sorry.

well, I guess no-one uses serial ports for midi anymore. they still work for 
me though. and, it's still a nice feature to be able to give users who want 
legacy features or low-level access to ports (USB, serial, etc.) that 
freedom, so I'm glad you're considering adding the old code back!
