Sae,
What you are talking about here is called eugenics and has been imagined by several people including me. The only problem with eugenics is deciding which traits should be masked out and which should be encouraged.
It seems the next logical step to try to strengthen our genome or maybe even specialize different sets of people by purposly handicapping some of them so they won't be bothered by an active mind while they set to the drudgery of their workday. We could call them epsilons...
