Is there a MIDI Controller that has this?

What if you had a MIDI controller where you could tell it "The Key of D" and all of the keys in the key of D would light up so you would know which keys you could use to stay within that key. You could further implement further parameters like flats, minors, fifths, whatever and all of the keys that fall within your parameters would light up.

I use coloured tape and put little squares on my keyboard so that if I want to play in "A" for example, I have a quick way to see the notes while noodling. A keyboard set up to do this with little lights on the keys would be way cooler and quicker to change around than tape! Not to mention, keep your keyboard from getting sticky like mine!
