If we do the file and scripting/control thing properly, then on the list #3, 4, 5, and 6 are done for free, and #9 about 90% just pending the definition of the filter plugins. The scripting and control component is probably at least half the project in terms of completing the goals. You can pretty much do real editing once it's in place barring rendered effets like transitions. After that all that's needed is the API for the filter and codec plugins and the GUI to make it all easy to use. The scripting IS the editor, the filters and the rest are just tools for the scripting language to use.

Especially if the core can work without the GUI, as Mosu suggested.
