Midi techs probably frown upon this but still: Having something that can 
turn Note On's into MMC (Midi Machine Control) would be nice. I have an 
88-keys master that cannot emit MMC. I'd happily spend an octave on 
being able to transport control/rec enable Ardour and the such directly 
from where I sit and play. It would involve some kind of parsing as a 
keypress and release from the board is a "Note On x velocity v" && 
"Note On x velocity 0" some time later.
