Interesting issue. The "large audience" for that kind of program would
not be exegetes but Greek students. Technically all you wrote is
possible but practically we have limits:
First, we don't have good texts (modules) like Nestle/Aland. This is a
great problem for us with all our software. Second, we don't have
manpower to make the software. Someone should volunteer.

1. Find a theological faculty which teaches Greek (you already have
one).
2. Write a small and simple program which has the Greek text and lets
people parse the words as you suggested.
3. Take Greek students and let them do some learning (parsing,
vocabulary...) without and with your program.
4. Research the learning results.
5. Tell the world that your software was scientifically proven to be of
great help in learning Greek.
However, this is more proper for information sciences or behavioral
sciences than theology. It's up to your faculty if they accept this.
Hmm, I could use this myself...
