Hi. I am neither organist nor organ builder, but I do listen to
organ music (mainly baroque) and have a lively interest in things
mechanical. And of course I'm a computer nerd...
Anyway, the following comment caught my eye:

What is current technology like vis a vis tactile feedback from
keyboards ? It seems reasonable that that pluck point that
E. Power Biggs so often wrote about shouldn't need to be tracker
mechanics. Once you have decided to have an electric keyboard,
then there must be schemes to not only make pluck points, but to
make them programable. Is this being done ? Is it common, even ?
I have idly thought of ways of doing it over the years, but
being completely out of touch with the current state-of-the-art
I suspect my brilliant ideas are now old hat.
