Just a heads up, at least in the latest version you can add extra fields to components in eeschema. There are a handful of scripts out there that take these extra fields and generate more useful BOMs with them.
KiCost is one and bomtool (https://github.com/cpavlina/bomtool https://github.com/cpavlina/bomtool) is another.
bomtool has more of what you are looking for, where for passives you can specify a value, tolerance, package, etc it will just search digikey and pick a component that works.
The other things you mentioned I 100% agree with. more advanced DRC is something that a lot of people ask for. Not sure it will happen any time soon though.
