This sounds like a good idea if you have time to push it next week.
I'd like to get GFF parsing/writing in but need to do some refactoring
before realistically proposing that, and it won't happen until after
BOSC. I will do the annotation bit this weekend so it'll be in
there.

1.52 sounds like it'll be a good target for a lot of new 
functionality. Nice.

Thanks,
Brad
