Well, Eric, a multi-color profile (CMYK+n) has always required specialized tools to produce it. In ProfileMaker, it necessitates the Multi-Color module, which is extra and requires an additional purchase. Multi-color spaces are not exactly common yet. Photoshop has just started dealing with them in CS4, kind of (by using Multichannels, which is not exactly the most ideal way to handle them).
However much you may like things to be simpler or less expensive, wishing it doesn't make it so. There's a lot of technology involved, and know-how, and I haven't yet met anyone (aside from the independently wealthy) who likes to work for free.
