It sounds like you're reinventing GNU Rope.
You may want to look at this:
http://www.nat.org/grope.pdf
Believe me, they did. The new project was started
precisely because the code for Gnu Rope was never
released, and multiple attempts by multiple people
over multiple years to contact the author were
unsuccessful.
If you think development of Gnu Rope should be restarted,
by all means, contact the author of grope and see if
you can get him to release his code. Good luck.
As far as I know, he doesn't return email (he's kind
of a high profile guy these days, and has probably
moved on from actually writing code to drinking
pina coladas or something.)
