Reading further on, I see that you're looking at end-user. This changes things a bit. Now you're looking at trying to make things user-proof, maintain data integrity (Who said 1<>one?), validate data, so on and so on. You're probably looking at custom code now.
But, if you can trust the user(s), I'd STILL say don't reinvent, but just use a something that is already written.
