Well here is a little py script I wrote some time ago http://sauco.net/utilities/psdb you will need the Python Cryptography Toolkit to run it.

Please understand that I am not a programmer and this script was never intended to be publicly released but for my own use. 
Of course this still have all the problems mention by Josh!

Because it was never intended to be released I have just added a GPL notice and a little explanation on how to use it on the headers.
