I use DVD2AVI that way :

ripping with smartripper
making a dvd2avi project
(using AVIsynth)
using Gknot for bitrae calculation
encoding with vdub...

I think all these tools are very optimised, so I'm not sure a new all-in-1 is necessary...but after all, if you do a great job...provided you keep the frameserving capabilities and the project files (because they are needed in gknot), or better, warn Gnot team about your intentions to make a command line tool...
