I realize there's a lot of math to figure out true peak, but It would be a nice start however for the devs to provide a simple brickwall limiter that sets the max ceiling to 0 dBFS.
This allows for things like normalizing to 0 dBFS predictably, and furthermore if efficient enough; it's something that should wind up in every plug-in for all intensive purposes to prevent bloat / overload of frequency domain in the case of positive numbers (within a DAW mostly).
Too bad DAW's don't just offer the ability to do that off the hop.

The built-in compressor DSP script will actually work as a brickwall limiter when the attack is set to 0. For "true peak" (I hate this word, because there is no such thing as "true peak"), you need to oversample 4 times with linear phase filters.
