One more way of framing the Issue. Is there a way to access things
with AID_SYSTEM,AID_AUDIO (aka /dev/msm_pcm_out) from an app?

This capability...to record direct from the system. was available on
iphone years ago. so, I see this as a pretty darn pressing issue. Not
to mention that people have been asking for this capability for
android for years now too.
