Hey Michael, thanks for your interest in OpenLayers, and for willing to improve the library. I'm not sure if it makes sense to add such a feature to OpenLayers, because there is a library (arc, https://www.npmjs.com/package/arc) already which provides that. You can see that it integrates well with OpenLayers in one of the official examples: https://openlayers.org/en/latest/examples/flight-animation.html.
That said, you might be able to save yourself some time using that library. Andreas.
