Missed this from long ago. Indeed, that would be awesome. It would produce something that's ready to file with almost no effort.
However, it seems like the larger challenge with any tax preparation software that one can use to file, is ensuring that it is up to date with tax law and constant changes. A widely used open source effort would do it. Building something open source that gets widely used is of course the challenge. I imagine it would need either a supporting business model, or a set of dedicated accounting + tax prep + software experts to volunteer their time. Even better (and even more impossible) would be extreme simplification of the tax code.
