Midi timing when controlling Actions

Somehow the midi timing when controlling actions (I can only talk about Windows, no idea if it's different on MAC) is worse than the timing when using keystrokes, so something must be wrong there.

I read about it the first time in a thread about live looping, but I cannot find it anymore, the author suggested using MIDI 2 keystroke program, to improve Reapers controll timing... hey, this is years ago, this can't be true... Reaper is so mighty, it's such a waste of time & reliability recources to use another program just to convert MIDI into keystrokes for Reaper better responding... This MUST be possible within reaper!!!!

Think of midi controlled TAP function and other Transport Actions. They should have the best midi latency as possible!

I'm looking for various workarounds, but in the end this is an important topic as it defines a basic quality of reaper handling...

This is, how it looks like with livelooping for now (you can hear the latency after the first loop; in a DJ setup this wouldn't work):
