It’s not unheard of (I’d put Story Turbo and Gingko in this category as well, where someone pairs up with a programmer). I’m all for new software, but I’d also ask whether a) is there really not a single software that could accommodate your needs (what are your criteria?) and b) could you not use a combination of software (a “tool chain”), perhaps patched together by macros or scripts (AutoHotkey, Python), so that they could act as a de facto single software that accomplish your aims?

Successful software need ongoing development, a user base that spots bugs and offers suggestions for improvements etc. Otherwise there is a risk that the software is left behind as operating systems move on.
