Yeah, it'd be kind of cool if QWS (or any other MIDI sequencer, for that matter) could record elimination tracks. Say you have a melody and a chord pattern. You want to strip the melody out of the track, so you create a track where you play just the melody. (after, of course, saving the whole track on another track) You record the elimination melody, which strips the melody out of the track when you run an elimination tool on it, where you specify the target and source tracks, the target being the track modified and the source being the source for what needs to be eliminated. Now you've got a chord track alone. Then if you wanted to make sure your melody track was exact instead of just approximate, you'd run this again, with the chord track as the source and the saved complete version as the target, and you'd get a clean melody with all the controllers and other such stuff in place. This would make MIDI editing work like audio, with the use of out of phase tracks to eliminate lines. I've never encountered this in any sequencer, though, but I can't imagine it'd be too hard to create.

Unfortunately, splitting left hand and right hand automatically is an almost impossible task, because the hands can move around and in one place the same note can be played with either hand. You can even have pieces where the hands physically cross over! Hope this helps.
