Would anyone be interested in helping to build a monitor calibration app?

There are a lot of web sites that will walk you through the steps, but I thought something more interactive would be cool.

I thought we could build it together and then anyone could use it whenever color was critical to the project. This is most often the case when playing Flash video.

So basically it would:

1) Have a built in preloader
2) Load the movie while the user is prompted to calibrate the monitor
3) Take the user through each step, such as "Adjust contrast until the grey bar is no longer visible."

Here are some examples of web pages for adjustment:

Is there already something like this?

If not, anyone interested in planning, coding, thinking, doing?
