I will, but meanwhile, isn't there a sane way to implement microphone
protection? Ideally, I'd like to support Windows 7 and up. I can resort to
undocumented hooks, but I prefer to avoid this path.

sounds like a good feature request – can you file it in Feedback Hub?

If I disable the microphone using the group policy rule, is there a
way for me to detect when a program tries to access the microphone, so
I can show a notification to the user?
