I think they all do something similar, either via JTAG or USB. The problem is the drivers, software and ROM needed to flash the device are very confidential.

If you're referring to SPflashTool, it certainly has a very different appearance but keep in mind that it was originally a factory tool, so the programmers didn't spend much time making it "pretty" --- there's source code floating around that you can inspect and compile yourself if you're that worried.
