It, especially the wireless version, has better ergonomics than I have ever seen from a Microsoft keyboard. I have used Microsoft Natural Elite for a number of years in the past.

Recently, Jobs spoke about Apple's environmentally friendly efforts. Might they one day make ergonomics the focus?
Or is this simply a niche feature that the general masses would not be interested in.

No and yes. It's not a niche feature when it would help a big part of users. On the other hand, the majority of users are not interested, not even the ones that would benefit, and will continue to pick plastic turds with as many multimedia buttons as possible.

For instance, as odd as this sounds, would we ever see a slightly angled keyboard on a MacBook Pro?

Yeah, I wondered four years ago why they would not put an angled board on the 15" when there is plenty space for it.
