Oh, it's not that bad.  About the worst part is having to click
in the first (date) field.  Tabs get you through all of the
others, up to the submit button.

I suspect that javascript might be able to help me with the
first field focus thing, and perhaps allow some key bindings so
that the category selector widget doesn't need to be moused, but
I don't have a javascript reference handy.

Fixing past mistakes in the database is a job for vi ;-)

Yeah, if nothing better comes along beforehand, I expect that
this will sprout X or terminal UIs (I loath curses interfaces,
though).  At least I know what's in the database, and can tweak
it to suit my needs.  Some of the references that were posted
here recently look interesting.  There was a link to a PHP based
scheme that looks like a fancier version of my effort.
