It's on my TODO list (which moves very slowly these days). My plan is to
update EuCOM, and use the grid control for an editor base to work with
EuSQL. Of course, this wouldn't be a generic editor for any EDS database,
but I'd like to do a nice front end a-la MS Access.

I doubt we'll ever get anything like that, although Tone's approach is
probably the best way for a totally generic EDS editor. I think a lot
depends on the amount of overhead you're willing to deal with to standardize
the data.
