What you are aiming at is a massive project that is somewhat far removed from a spreadsheet of the kind we have come to love and hate, occasionally at the same time.
The first question you have to ask is if another program already exists to meet your needs. My intuition is that Gnumeric (etc.) is great for your smaller needs while something like R should do when your projects get large and need a lot of structure. We don't get offended if people decide R fits their work better. The failure of commercial products suggests that there is insufficient need for a product somewhere in-between Gnumeric and R. Finally, you have no idea what it takes to bring such a project to life! You are going to need man-years of skilled work and probably significant funding. I don't see where you will find sufficient volunteers.
