You're right about the two characteristics you mentioned. I just saw Mehldau at a local jazz club this week and a neat gimmick was that while playing a complex rhythmic line with his left hand midpiano, with his right hand he would play some stuff above the left, then some below, and so on. Actually was effective, almost like three voices. Also did the same thing with his right hand playing the rhythmic background, and the left going above and below. His rhythmic drive is impressive. Where he isn't great is that he doesn't have outstanding imagination with his right hand improvisations. He did surprise me with a few choruses of pretty advanced right hand fast playing but that wasn't the norm. One original song of his, Resignation, is quite beautiful and lyrical even though the changing time signatures make it difficult to hum along.
