Add BLE Midi feature

I would like to have BLE midi reception added to the CQ.
I don’t know if there is hardware limitation for that or if this could be achieved by only software update but BLE midi would be of a great improvement feature.

What does BLE midi mean?

Hi.
BLE Midi for Bluetooth Low Energy Midi:

“… BLE MIDI (Bluetooth Low Energy Musical Instrument Digital Interface) allows wireless transmission of MIDI data between instruments, controllers, and computers/tablets using low-power Bluetooth. It enables cable-free, low-latency (ms) connectivity, making it ideal for mobile devices and modern DAWs…”

BLE Midi is more a standard for BT emission.
So I guess that my request can be sum-up in simply allow Midi BT receiving on the CQ.
What I am not sure is if the dedicated BT receiver in the CQ is BT audio only.
If this is the case, I imagine that adding BT Midi reception would also require a new BT receiver module and not only a firmware upgrade.

Having BLE MIDI would solve much of my USB MIDI / USB Audio issues.
