thus, any very steep slope could get a specific rock texture, and blend into a grassy texture at the top while blending into another texture at the lower angles.

This ability will definetely be in the next engine - I have read on several occasions interviews with the developers saying that they have a system in place that can auto-populate specific inclines and slopes (among other things) with specific texture/terrain types. I am assuming they will also have lots of tools in place to let to edit the parameters of how this is applied.

I also agree they need to work on proper outdoor optimization, but I have faith that they are doing that

pimped outdoor terrain and optimization tools would solidify Unreal as engine of choice for many years to come.
