As I mentioned, it's a task analogous to edits. 

You have to define a region, zero the same region
in the mother track, and then transform the region
(in this case displacing it in time) while the
rest of the content in the mother track remains unchanged.

You can't do it in realtime, but you can do it by
stopping and restarting.

Whatever DAW does it, faces the same issue, and has to
do something similar. MIDI is a wholly different medium
with an ability to easily shift individual notes.

Meanwhile, I'm trying to figure out what to do first.

Where are all the Google Summer of Code students?
