Will we ever see custom velocity curves in a Nord?

As big as a shame it is the new Nord Stage 3 88, didn't qualify for the new Nord Piano Keybed (Which do you think will ever happen? Because surely they COULD have done it this time around, but have chosen not to? So why would they choose to later down the line?? Is it because they still think they have to cater for Organ/Keyboardists on the 88 models?) ... I think so much of the problem I have over the lack of piano control, could be solved by harder velocity curves. So the question is, can we see this ever coming to the Stage?

I have to use my Sipario MIDI box with a custom velocity curve at the moment to get the best out of it, and although it's a tiny bit of gear, it's one more thing to set up and annoying. I didn't have this issue with my Nord Piano 2, which still wasn't great, but I could definitely get a bit more dynamic range out of it. So the Nord Piano 3 must be even better!

I'm thinking of upgrading my 'top' keyboard Hammond SK1, to the new Nord Stage 3 Compact, now we have the new organ engine, and to get the benefits of Stage 3 features, but feel I would miss the other new features, smooth sound transition/set list below with my current Nord Stage 2EX. On gigs where I don't use 2 keyboards. Which makes me want to purchase the Piano 3 for the bottom so I can get that control back over my pianos... but then even more features would be lost when I don't have the top Stage keyboard with me!! ..... So it's a case of, loosing lots of features, for a better action on the piano, for when I don't have two keyboards.

OR wait, and hope eventually we see a Nord Stage 3 with custom velocity curves... or better yet, the Nord Piano 3 action!!
