Try this program http://www.gpspassion.com/FORUMSEN/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=106662 It won't fulfill all your wishes but it is a GUI based editor that allows you to select individual tracks in a gpx file, prune undesired parts of tracks and optionally view them in Google Maps or OSM! You'll have to edit each track individually, unfortunately. No batch mode. But there is a long weekend ahead with no mapping..
