That would not be a very usable feature on a device designed for MIDI. 
I've seen guitars modded with a MIDI pickup but never seen a player use it 
while using a synth. Too much unpredictable pitches with such a device. I 
even find doing slight bends can cause problems on my Godin & GR-30. 
Mostly depends on the patch & how fast I attempt the bend.
