I know this might be well beyond the scope of the project, but MIDI is also a type of human interface that I think would benefit a lot of people using barrier.

I basically use a Windows and a Linux computer (10 and Debian 9.x), and MIDI controllers are big, so instead of using multiple ones it'd be awesome to use one plugged into either machine with the messages transmitted via barrier (which is effing awesome btw).

Thanks and sorry for posting this here, I don't know where else to do this.

Unfortunately it's not technically possible to implement this within Barrier. MIDI uses a completely different input stack at least on Linux and supporting it would effectively mean writing a second Barrier-for-MIDI from scratch.
