Some time ago, and without much hope, I looked everywhere for a tool that
could do this, and came up dry. I'm sure firestarter was part of that
effort, and didn't make the grade for some reason. But, it's probably much
better now (along with all the other tools), and I don't have the time to
have another look. If anyone looks at firestarter, or other frontends, and
finds something to rave about, I hope they post!

Specifically, I was looking for something along the lines of the
Robert Nichols' 8/25/05 post. I still haven't much hope, but I'd love to be
surprised.
