We also want to get this in for RHEL5.1, if possible. (And tweaked for RHEL6, 
of course).

Ok. Where/how/who? Who are the right people to talk to in order to get the 
find-provides.modalias added to the distro? Also, there are:
   /usr/lib/rpm/find-provides
   /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/find-provides

Which is the "correct" one to add this to? 

Next, where did you want to add a GUI for this? What did you envision it 
looking like? Can I help out on this one?

Sorry to hear about that. I had mono a few years ago and it was not pleasant. 
The blood test for Mono takes about 10 minutes to do.
