Keyboard with x/y pad build into each key?

Check out the video here first:

Sounds pretty sick. I don't know if the width of the keys would be sufficient but i can think of plenty of things to map to the Y plane on the keyboard.

Think of making vibrato or velocity changes by playing higher or lower on the keys. I have a hard time making intentional velocity changes so this would be perfect. Personally Id make the very bottom of the keys (closest to you) 127 and the top of the keys 1 in respect to midi value. If you want to play softer just move your fingers up towards the top of the keys, how cool would that be?? :h:

QuNexus does something kind of similar. I don't have one but I've been contemplating picking one up, they look pretty badass.
