Nop, MIDI is most certainly not the right kind of protocol for this purpose.
I thought: perhaps a combination of MIDI and USB. You could transfer all the
MIDI-stuff via MIDI and the more complex app interface output and
configurations via USB. But I'm not aware of anything like it.
Do you know if the windows world has anything like it?
Kindest regards

On the USB track.. there is a program called xhkeys which allows
programming particular functions to any single keypress on the
(qwerty) keyboard. This could be useful for launching particular
apps, and loading patches with an extended keyboard (like the
cherry Linux keyboard for example).
With a standard midi keyboard, it is simple to change presets for
soundfonts etc.
