Interesting question. I've wondered about this for a while and had an 
opportunity to try my Centaur amplifier with a FT-2000 (in place of my 
usual Paragon) in full QSK  mode this weekend.

What I did was hook an external keyer to the "key in" jack of the 
amplifier and hooked the amplifier "key out" to one of the FT-2000 key 
jacks, thus taking advantage of the sequencing in the TT amp. The 
FT-2000 key jack was set to operate without the internal keyer. It 
seemed to work fine and reports were that the keying sounded the same 
either semi or full QSK.

I did have a xmit lock-up but only on 80 m, so most probably a local 
grounding issue, not a systematic problem of the connections.

Good to know about the possibilities!
