Sergei,
I wanted to ask how much is it feasible in GSoC.
Will it be even a good proposal?

"how much is it feasible in GSoC" - I have no idea.

"Will it be even a good proposal?" - IMO it's a bad proposal because it's waste 
of resources (of efforts of developers).

Several years ago Octave package system was conceptually broken. It probably 
still is.

If so, a probably useful task would to define first and maybe implement a new 
package system.

Another useful feature would be to write Octave to Julia ( 
https://julialang.org/ ) translator.

Also, there is an interesting library to convert Octave code into C++ : 
https://bitbucket.org/cyrille/cauchy . I haven't tried it yet. If it at least 
somehow works and demands improvement, improving it would be a great thing.
