[PD] auto-adding MIDI devices

I was just thinking, currently Pd can get a list of the active MIDI devices, on Windows and Mac OS X at least.  Would there be any problem if Pd just automatically added those and enabled them if there weren't any preferences saved?

So if someone has setup their MIDI devices, then they would not be touched.  But if the MIDI device setup was just device, it would just add the MIDI devices found by sys_get_midi_devs() in sequential order.
