I have code for reading Phred-produced seq/qual pairs of FASTA-formatted
files into Bio::QualSeq objects, which are merely Bio::Seq objects with
quality values (being truncated and reversed, too, when you
truncate/reverse the seq). The code can also write qual-files.

If you think this is useful for you I'll try to put it to the repository.
