[LAU] MIDI control from laptop touchpad?

[Raine M. Ekman]

Is there some piece of software to use the touchpad on a laptop as a MIDI 
controller in Linux? If not, is there a need for one and what features 
would you like to see in it?

I've been tinkering a bit with the source to Synclient that interfaces 
with the Synaptics touchpad driver in X, and there isn't too much to do 
to get it to output MIDI. So, I'm asking here to avoid reinventing the 
wheel.
