Let me make some more assumptions about (my) suggested new adjust-tempo function:
It should ask how many beats or bars do correspond precisely to the current selected range and it might also give default values based on that selected length, tempo and time signature. It would also ask some other options in the same dialog box, like whether you wish to adjust the current clip start time, all clips in current track or whole session. etc.
The selection for this purpose (to adjust-tempo) is inherently a visual process: you click-and-drag starting from the onset of the first beat (or where you think it is) and ending right before the onset of the last beat. Of course this can be made obvious if taking a recorded percussion track as reference or a tapped MIDI one. Remember, it's a visual process and it might be an iterative one too: you won't make it right first time, always :)
Of course, you may well take advantage from the snap-to-grid feature but for precision sake the selection procedure (setting the left/edit-head and right/edit-tail edges) are best done with snap quantization set to "None".
