You can use a VCA to attenuate the signal to line level, and the existing
119 ext. input to beef it back up to modular levels again. But yes, I can
also see how this sort of module could be handy, and you could probably even
fit two of them on an 8HP panel if you just needed out and in each with a
level pot - or four on a 4HP panel (narrowest quad-module ever!) if you only
needed I/O and no level pots. I'd probably go for a version with level pots,
though, as that would be much more versatile.
