Not touch related but a UI improvement I've been thinking of suggesting
is midi control of more interface buttons.

I have an Alesis QX49, while the keyboard and drum pads work right as
midi input and the sliders and knobs can be linked to dials within lmms
it also has 6 "media keys" - that are marked as play, stop, record,
fast forward, rewind and loop.

It would be nice to be able to attach these to the play controls in the
song editor, piano roll and bassline windows. Of note is that these
send normal midi events, meaning you get button down and button up
which together should only trigger one toggle of the button.
