This is very true. However, if there is already an existing ontology
that matches the input data well (e.g. the NCI Thesaurus in case of
Tissue Microarray Annotations in TMAD (http://tma.stanford.edu/) ..
then its possible to use the annotator tool at NCBO
(http://bioportal.bioontology.org/annotate).

I notice that EFO is accessible through BioPortal. As the Neurolex group
is in the process of updating NIFSTD, perhaps the new version of NIFSTD
may also be made accessible through BioPortal when it's ready.
