I eventually want to get exactly what your are talking about. Right now I have the ability to specify a frequency breakdown and assign a frequency to an analyzer that either triggers a channel, follows a channel, or bounces from channel to channel. I also have prebuilt effects that just need to be assigned to channels. This keeps the configuration of a show simple and allows you to do multiple songs in a list. I do Halloween so my requirements are slightly different so I never added the feature for dividing up the song but it has crossed my mind. I think ptone's functionality would also be a great thing to have when you need a sequence that doesn't syncopate well with the music.
E.g. from my Halloween show.

The lights in the windows are on the flicker effect
And the strobes are triggered when the sound frequency passes the threshold.
