Stian I was writing this in a half asleep state.

The pros I concur with

Computer and laptop's dont need tethering  you can use wifi and or
bluetooth. ipads, and even my nexus 7 have bluetooth. If bluetooth is used
you would need to pair it with the system.

I am thinking of allowing such an app to control different windows and
settings in lmms from ones tablet and even use it to send signals to record
lets say a melody on the tablet it inserts it in the project etc.

A good example of this granted it is not musically related is libreoffice
impress (powerpoint equivalent) remote on android. That interfaces with
libreoffice via bluetooth.
