Having MIDI devices in permissions dropdown is terrible UX

Reported by ch...@ocproducts.com, Jul 19 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/51.0.2704.106 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to any site
2. Click the button to the left of the URL in the location bar
3. See serious bloat

What is the expected behavior?
The user has to understand and be able to easily scan security options. It has to be as short and simple as possible and all make immediate sense.

What went wrong?
Mixing in bloat like MIDI to a key part of the main browser permission UI is total madness.

Even having MIDI in the browser is highly questionable, but if it's there it should be so buried that only people with MIDI devices even see it.

Did this work before? N/A

We plan to move all non-default settings from this UI surface as soon as there is a new place for it, which is in progress.
