Yup, all available now in CyberTuner.

As for the multiple partial thing:

This would be a bit complicated, but right now with CyberTuner and a MIDI
SAT, one could tune a piano and have displays for two different partials
of many notes of a piano.  With RCT, one has a choice of partials from
which to tune, at least on notes A0 through G#4.  So one could calculate
a tuning with one set of partials for use in the CyberTuner display, and
calculate a tuning using different partials to be sent through MIDI to
the SAT.  Available today.
