Folks, this is crossposted to lots of lists, so watch the replies.

I'm in desperate need of sources for key contacts. This is for a
custom organ controller using real Hammond keys. I've concluded that
the Hammond keystacks are going to be almost impossible to make light
weight enough.

What I would really like to try are those bubble contact strips used
in lots of modern actions. Help me source these please! Or any other
key contact ideas you have.

Well the Polyfusion modular synth keyboard and my Wersi bass pedals both use
reed switches.  They're enclosed in a glass tube so they never corrode or
get dirty.  All you do is pass a magnet infront of them and the contact
closes.  I've seen them for sale at Mouser's, and probably elsewhere.
