Definitely novel... but I can see at least two problems, sorry for being
the killjoy-engineer again...
1) Dirty walls- it's fairly easy to give a lightswitch a wipe, but unless
the wall is tiled, it will start to look grubby fast!
2) Servicability- what happens when something breaks? To my mind, anything
electronicky in the house should be very accessible for
repairs/replacement, if possible without redecoration!
3) Visitors- it might be a bit disorienting for those not used to it ;-)
But definitely a good idea, especially in a bathroom or the like. You
could have a row of antenna on the wall by the bath, have each switch play
a different tone of buzzer, and paint piano keys over them ;-) ;-)
