You listed so many items that perhaps we should look if there is
some other editor which already have most of the features, and
then all we should join that project. ;-)
Could Ardour be modified to include Sweep-type application?

Audacity is already excellent but has annoying features as well.

The overview files would help too. Do we have them? Generating them also
offline, e.g., with "sndfile-overview", would be very nice.

The cache should be large enough so that user may switch between
the window and the fullscreen modes without redrawing. Scrubbing needs
extra cache too if user may grab the waveform and move it (instead of
moving the cursor).

>- audio preview while browsing audio files (ID:637291)

Display preview? Then overview files would help.
Audio preview would be nice too.

>- batch (macro?) processing of sound data (ID:654580)

Swig interface would be good. Swig would offer support for many
scripting languages in one go. Scripting would allow easy addition
of new features. Script file directory + script menu or browser.
