That would fit perfectly into the Qt-based frontend application. It already has a dialog that lets you edit the preset INI file, but it's identical to open the preset with a simple text editor. A more feature-rich editor would surely be awesome.
I considered doing that many years ago and never got around to making anything cool. Also I guess the native preset initiative @psperl and I introduced changed the idea as well. In particular, one of the reasons for the preset factory abstraction was to eventually support presets written in python or something equally simple and approachable, unlike the milkdrop 2.x formats.
I'm pretty sure there's an implementation of this in one of the older public releases of projectM. We removed it at some point due to the maintenance burden.

Winamp had a feature in which you could enter different math functions to make your own vis plugin on the fly, perhaps this could be integrated into project M.
