Yes, that's sadly too much asked. We have had that discussion in the  
Live community since Live 4 and the only progress it has generated so  
far is a little automizable "F" (Freeze audio loop) on the built-in  
Ping Pong Delay plugin. By using that you can do overdub layering  
style looping of up to two bar loops. IMHO you can have a lot more  
fun with looping in Live by using the third party plug-in Augustus  
Loop from Expert Sleepers. Or Mobius, if you like the EDP context.
