LOL. The DRM-stripping tools are utilities that can be run from the command line. Thus, they can be wrapped in any program able to execute external code. Therefore it's possible to create DRM removal capabilities for (almost) any program that supports a plugin architecture. Hell, it's probably possible to write an e-book DRM removal plugin for Photoshop.
