Pretty cool!  I never thought we'd see any such utility get close to
usable.  I'd say we should definitely make this available.

The good thing about spitting out a VASSAL module is that you don't have to
work through all the nit picky cases.  You may already have reached the
point of diminishing returns.  If you can save people the bulk of the work,
they can add finishing touches in the VASSAL editor and they'll still thank
you.  The key is to handle possible errors so that strange input from ADC
just results in some missing components and doesn't make the whole program
fall over.

If the code works in 80% of the cases, it doesn't have to be pretty.  We
should get it into SVN and make and put it up on the wiki as an executable
jar.
