Perhaps your client could use Excel or other spreadsheet to maintain a 
list, and save the spreadsheet as tab-delimited text (CSV, but with tabs 
instead of commas), and upload via simple http upload page.  This would 
have the advantage of a [probably] familiar interface for your client, 
and minimal time investment on your part.
