Yeah, I know. To avoid needing a lot of work to verify it's correct, it would probably have to be limited to a very small and well defined subset of commands, at which point the implementation becomes more an additional web interface (perhaps using all dropdowns and custom forms for things like revision ranges) that just happens to look like the raw commands. :(
