Well, I started this out by liking the idea, then decided that it would be very hard to
create such a beast.  How about using a netlist format?  (I can even generate one
of those HERE!)  If we used a sort-of standard/vanilla version, we might get away
with using various different pacakges.  Seems to me that there are even PC-based
schematic capture tools which can generate and accept netlists?

Hmmm...
