It would be very inconvenient having all the wires coming out of the mouse. Integration into the Keyboard is a better bet.

Mine is out in the open shamelessly displaying everything it's got. On the other hand a credit card size computer which you can plug into a keyboard with all the power and connectors on the keyboard has some appeal. Some 1980's early computers worked that way.
