Hi Declan,

don't know a tool like that (but I'm not authorative for that...), but the
first thing I think of is the fTools-functionality of Carson Farmer (in
Vector menu of Qgis). It already does things like that. Maybe it's worth a
feature request to him?

Another option would be to write a python plugin for it? Or add it to the
plugin-wishes list if you do not want to do it yourself:
