I can already do this now with my PC, even with 640x480x30fps. Can preview picture in picture, fade edits, overlays, etc, etc, all in realtime in the preview pane. Sometimes it may stutter, but overall you get a pretty good idea of the final video before clicking the encode button.
If we're talking some advanced 3D effects, serious image manipulation in real-time, and so on, then sure, that'd demand something a little more beefy than what I have right now, but then you're starting to move out of the needs and wants of the average home movie maker, and into something more professional anyway.
