Nice weekend project!

My current workflow to sync subtitles is to find one sentence in the beginning of the movie and one near the end, and search the subtitle text for these sentences. The four timestamps are then ran through the perl program subs (see http://search.cpan.org/~karasik/Subtitles-1.03/subs).

Perhaps using a search based interface, instead of letting the user pick from all lines, would be a nice extension.
