I'm not a piano expert.  Surprise!  I found this great program and decided to try learning with it.

I like all the skill modes, but think another similar mode would be helpful to me.  Since I'm no expert with the piano, but have learned computer touch-typing, it seems that a similar mode to that of gtypist would be helpful.  Gtypist doesn't allow for (backspace) correction of mistakes.  As soon as an error is keyed, it continues to the next letter, which I think helps train good self-pacing.  In other words, your "Play Along" mode comes close by allowing to set the speed to whatever you're comfortable with, but I think it would be better if there's a non-forced speed, similar to the "Follow You" mode that waits for you to play notes, but continues on the keystroke whether or not an error was made.  "Follow You" mode is still probably preferred to most people, so I think it would be best to just add this "Follow You Allowing Errors" (or whatever you want to call it) mode to the options already there, perhaps just as a "Setup"->"Preferences" option.

I hope that's a sane request, as I don't know the piano, and that it wouldn't require too much work.
Thanks for the consideration,
