My idea would take any logs, with a mix of OL and CL and do all the work for you. You could in theory have one log that is an hour long with half a dozen WOT pulls and a bunch of mixed driving, or 10 logs with 5 minutes of mixed driving each, plus WOT logs, etc.

To use raw logs like that now you need to manipulate them in excel (including the time stamp column).

I'm not saying the app I was thinking of making would fundamentally change the underlying logic, it would basically just do both OL and CL at the same time from one or more log. It could also be written to include validation on how "good" the logs are, etc.
Realistically the entire process of tuning a car (in terms of base calibration) is entirely deterministic and much better suited to a computer than a human being. I've worked on ruby scripts in the past that do exactly what you speak of, but have never had time to clean them up and test them extensively due to actually having to tune cars all the time . One of these days i'll get around to it.
