I'll definitely have to take a closer look at it when I have time.   
My guess is the best fit for data would be a seqfeatures, either in a  
collection or a Bio::Seq.  As for the parsers you can look at the  
Bio::Tools::Tmhmm module, which scans Tmhmm output and converts  
everything to seqfeatures.
