Kit Sampling mode with multiple takes/loops/rows

If sampling audio-in with a Kit track, it'd be cool if the sample was cut into loopable chunks the size of the current track length. So if you leave it recording, it will finalise that recording and assign it to the row/pad, but also keep recording and skip down to a new row/pad and repeat the operation.
This would automate the in-out points and the sample length and very quickly allow you to build up multiple takes or layers. They can then easily be combined together eg for building up a harmony or played individually to give you several takes/versions. It'd work kind of like overdub, but more versatile as you'd have each pass as a distinct recording. It would also help if you want your hands free to play guitar or something, so you could hit record halfway through a track knowing that it will start a fresh recording of the correct length at the next loop.
So every time the playback marker passes the start of the track a new recording is started and every time it passes the track end marker, the recording chunk is completed, assigned and a new chunk starts recording on the next pad/row. Maybe it could be set to ignore partial recordings, so only a full track-start to track-end would create a recording.

I think some of this is kind of covered in the other looper request, but this struck me as a neat way to do it.
cheers,
James
