Common in turbo normalized aircraft installations. Look at the T337P. Go to RAM’s website. Altitude makes no difference in this device, just absolute manifold pressure.

I've been thinking about the POV, and wondering how it'll behave at altitude.

If the air is pushing against a spring, perhaps the ambient pressure behind the spring wont make much difference. Has anyone tested the behavior of a POV at altitude. Seems to me that it would hold back pressure, even in a vacuum.
