I did basically the same thing using Forms 4.5, although the project I'm on stores each module in a table. I have a block with an extra check-box that allows you to select which forms to generate (and a generate-all button). I manually loop through the block host-ing out to f45gen to perform the generate.

Let me know if you want more information.
