To overcome the license issue, maybe a tool which use a gpl prolog to the queries shown by Steve can be created at mojo.codehaus.org ?
I don't remember the license policy. So whatever the means and the licences issues, are we agree about the task such a tool have to do (the needs expressed by Steve) ? In advance, thanks for any answer.
