[FWTools] Convert GPX to shapefile

Are there any plans to include a converter for GPX data in FW Tools?  I have written in Python a converter from GPX to shapefile using OGR module.  It currently converts only routes, since that was my need.  I'm considering extending the script to a full converter for waypoints and tracks also. 

Just wondering if someone has already done this and I have missed it.  I found gpx2shp written in C but it hasn't worked for me.  I've seen many other GPS users are looking for the same solution.
