Is distributing free tax filing software illegal? i.e. some web app similar to Intuit that help you fill forms but not filing for you. For general public that do not have many special deduction items I think this would not be very hard to do. For special deductions, I guess the app can just point the user to possible forms they should look at.

Edit: I don't think I addressed your question, sorry!I agree that a simple tool could be a great help if it doesn't already exist!
