It should even be trivial to write a nice Cocoa frontend with a GUI for this. Like an "assistant" or "wizard". You enter the information it needs (and of course it has a pref that makes it remember the default value for maintainer etc.) and it generates the info file. The next step is to edit it. A simple GUI editor for that could use a NSOutlineView, though I personally think of various other approachs that'd be much nicer... however that's just daydreaming :-) personally I am happy using a text editor, but I see how other people might benefit from any help in writing .info files.
