Sounds like a great addition.

As long as it reuses the existing code base (or improves it in a generic way) that sounds very interesting.
Editing and Saving KML (or OSM) still feels a bit cumbersome from the user's perspective, so any 
improvements on that side would also be very much welcome.

I'm facing a similar issue since my son Matthias was born last year ;-)
Still I plan to become more active again in the Marble world ....

Best Wishes
