some algorithms for instruments selection are defined in
QuantLibAddin, see qlRateHelperSelection in qlo/ratehelpers.hpp.
They are not in QuantLib as Luigi has preferred to keep them in the
application layer out of the analytic library so far.

This is something I've been planning for a long time now. We have
Log-Linear interpolation, but what we really need is a logarithmic
adapter of any available interpolation. Then my favorite approach
would be monotone-cubic interpolation of log-discounts
