There needs to be a seperate EMP file editor like there is for maps. Then we could have a 'load and revise' function that would save us all the hassle of running random games until all empires have been selected and manually saved.

Why do you need a separate editor, when you can make all the changes you want and save them from the Setup screen? There's no law that says you have to actually start a new game after you save the .emp file.
An alternative to starting random games (which I seem to be the only person to use, AFAICT, no matter how often I describe the procedure on these Boards) is to open the <race_name>_AI_General.txt file, copy down the values for the point setting you want, and create a "new" race using that shipset with the values from the file.
There's also no law that says you have to go down the Setup screen tabs in order; I've gotten in the habit of starting with Victory Conditions and doing Players Last.
