I am writing this at the moment. The latest CVS version has code
in development which represents EMBL/GenBank entries (IO at the moment
from EMBL .dat files). It is not ready for use yet, but you could be
an early tester (in a couple of weeks perhaps). The reading of the CDS
stuff works ok for me at the moment, so there is no real problem in 
the parsing, I just need to tidy it up/add some more twiddles to the
parser.
