Hmm, would you really call it “total overkill” to write a sequence like

    <dvdauthor>
        <vmgm>
            <fpc>
                jump title 1;
            </fpc>
        </vmgm>
        <titleset>
            <titles>
                <video aspect="16:9"/>
                <pgc>
                    <vob file="vid/title.mpg"/>
                </pgc>
            </titles>
        </titleset>
    </dvdauthor>

? And, having done it once, you can just copy and paste it for new
projects and do little more than replace the bits between <pgc> ...
</pgc>.

Alternatively, a command-line front end like Tovid <http://tovid.org/>
should be able to simplify lots of things for you.
