Lightbulb what about vacuum actuation of the bleed air valve?

What if instead of using a servo have a piston (with a return spring inside the cylinder) move the bleed air valve?
Then use the vacuum from the crankcase (trough a one way valve) to actuate/move this piston.
This assumes that the vacuum inside a engine is directly corrolated to the fuel demand (rpm ect) and therefor regulates on the actual fuel demand of the engine instead of the position of the trottle servo.

thoughts ?
