[sdiy] Handling MIDI Running Status from Power-up

[MTG]

But how many actually implement it? The OP seems to have a device that's 
not following that concept (or maybe it's just a thought exercise). The 
MMA should have included that as a line item in that ASCII-art MIDI 
Implementation Chart.

All of us that made a MIDI-Out device need to do our homework too it seems.
