Maybe I don't get correctly what he means, but to my understanding CJ's suggestion assumes that lower notes (left hand) are more prominent on one channel and higher notes (right hand) on the other. You already mentioned in a previous post that this is usually not the case. The room image of a piano usually comes from room mics which will feature low and high keys pretty much equally in each mic. Thus changing channel volumes of a stereo piano won't do the trick, it will just attenuate one side of the room information, but not low or high keys.
You do find piano libraries which spread low to high keys across the stereo image, but that has to be subtle to make sense. If overdone to the point where CJ's suggestion works sufficiently it will sound awkward. Even if you are dealing with one of those, you'll find most of the piano key range pretty much right in the middle of the image and if both hands are playing close together they will also be close together in the stereo image.
EDIT: oops, I guess I shouldn't post while having my coffee - I was replying to jm24, it feels redundant now that some other posts already cleared things.
Yep, if you use a plug with sympathetic resonance, distributing to two plugs is not ideal, moreso if you play with much sustain pedal usage. I'd opt for note velocity editing, personally.
