Continuum I see
MIDIKeyTimbre - front back position (per note)
MIDIChannelPressure - pressure (aftertouch) Is this PER note on Continuum or global like how it's currently mapped to midi?
Per Key Pitch - ability to do per note pitch-bend too. Not available in standard midi though.

Seems from the videos that Continuum has per note values for both KeyTimbre and Pressure (polyphonic aftertouch)

MIDI
MIDIKeyTimbre - not accessible
MIDIChannelPressure - Global aftertouch
What about Polyphonic aftertouch? Why is this not mapped? It would be extremely useful. For example my eigenharp sends polyphonic key pressure over midi but it is ignored by Kyma (unless I'm missing something). Same with Manta. Sending Polyphonic aftertouch is ignored.

Right now I wrote an algorithmn to convert the polyphonic aftertouch on Manta to a global smoothed value. Works but obviously would be much nicer to not have to do that.

Seems that mapping MIDI Poly Key Pressure (polyphonic aftertouch) to KeyTimbre would really close the gap and would complete the midi mapping properly.

Thoughts?
