Yes, we need something like this, anyone?

I guess it's impossible. (i'm 99% sure)
Song mode now is very, very simple, your suggestion would need a lot 
of programming (and room (=ram) for that) and all current songs would 
not run on it. 

Maybe a solution for what you want is use a sequencer alongside to do 
the tricks you want. (why not the MM with LFO-> CC on ext. midi 
sequencer track?) You can use the internal pattern/song mode and 
still send CC's from external seq. When the ext midi seq is working 
properly I planned to test the usability of this to use in Live 
situations to give extra variation to existing patterns on the MD. 
(note's and CC's)
