Where do you, or would you like to see the future of arranger keyboards headed?

With current latest 'arranger mode' feature firsts being
1) audio loop sample style patterns (Ketron)
2) super articulation voices (Yamaha)
3) software sample arrangers (Lionstracs Media Station)
4) arranger touchscreen (Korg/Roland)
5) support for loading custom user samples (Korg, Yamaha)

What do think the next new arranger feature(s) will or should be offered.
Here are some of my ideas.

An Arranger Component-Modular approach:
* controller kb, monitor display screen, CPU, arr function control pad, etc

Bluetooth wireless connectivity between components to eliminate cables & cords.

Portable touchscreen computing tablet similar in size to iPad with port to connect 61/76 keyboard controller allowing you to navigate & trigger all arranger functions and call up and edit styles & software sounds all on touchscreen.

Bright Screen that supports viewability both indoors and outdoors.

Breath controller ( wind controller expression)
These have been around for a long time but not included on an arranger

An environmentally friendly ergonomically designed keyboard utilizing lightest materials and confined within smallest footprint possible, and with all solid state memory (no moving parts)
