Open EastWest OPUS directly from KONTROL S MK3 keyboards ?
EastWest OPUS player is very common tool for big EastWest library and it will be nice to have a possibility to open a OPUS like KONTAKT 7 - integration without KOMPLETE KONTROL wich is now full functioned becouse EastWest does support NKS files and is possibile to browse complete library in KOMPLETE KONTROL - but direct integration with KONTROL S MK3 keyboards will be WIN WIN !

Impossible since you write it yourself , the East West libraries are made for OPUS and require OPUS not Kontakt.
The Komplete Kontrol app is the link to connect the libraries to the KONTROL S MK3 keyboards , the fact that the MK3 keyboards can connect to Kontakt as far as I know in general does not make it any less so. It just means that you can now browse and connect using both Komplete Kontrol app and Kontakt 7. But that still does not make OPUS made for Kontakt which brings you back to the necessity of using Komplete Kontrol.

Thank you PoorFellow !
But I think that a Direct Connection API can be inplemented on the same way like it does for KONTAKT 7
OPUS is play engine like KONTAKT 7 PLAYER and that was only my HOPE that we can expect from NATIVE INSTRUMENTS developer team DIRECT CONECTION to KONTROL S MK3 without KOMPLETE KONTROL software or that is more a EastWest - Developer Team job to implement a Direct Connection API for KONTROL S MK3 keyboards

Why would N.I. spend any resources at all on doing any work at all for any third party developer if it is not N.I's intellectual property and not N.I.'s to profit from ?
On the subject of Orchestral and music scoring then N.I. has an offer on 8DIO libraries for Kontakt : Save over 90% on an exclusive 8Dio bundle where it has all been made NKS ready , but you can be sure that if it is something that N.I. has done then of course they do not do that for free and they need to earn including to pay the staff that made this possible.
All in all then if someone third-party selling anything wants it to work with N.I. programs then I think that it is the job of third-party to do the work unless N.I. is paid to do it (though as it says in some of the documentations then N.I. offers : "Dedicated support – NI provides a dedicated support channel for all licensing partners.").
So in this case I think that you should ask EastWest to make their stuff conform with what you want , though I have to say that largely then though EastWest offers NKS at least for some of their libraries if not all ? , then I think that EastWest see themselves as more of a competitor with their OPUS engine and ComposerCloud so I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for what you want to happen to actually happen if I were you.
Also , not that this necessarily is directly connected to what you want , then people can freely make Kontakt compatible libraries but if they want same libraries 'licensed' then there is a cost for people to pay : How to License a KONTAKT Library-Why should I license my library with NI? , Kontakt Player: licensing - How to license your product
