Thanks -- that's very much the kind of thing I had in mind. (and I'd actually enjoy learning the tools and putting together my own package for this -- except it all too often seems I'm spending more than 90% of my working time learning new tools in multiple software applications, and less than 10% in actually getting any work done with them.)
