Is there / could there be a tool to restore the iPhone without itunes? (from an original firmware / system file) or ...

It could allow us to backup the iPhone to a "disk image" and restore it at any time to that state. (like restoring from dmg with diskutils in OSX)

Imagine not having to restore after a broken mod or some stupid error! Then there are all those itunes restore errors... and, even after a successful restore, you have to do everything from scratch.

And one more use: if a future firmware update from Apple renders previous mods useless (or even the Turbosim workaround) doing a restore will automatically update to the latest firmware.

so, what do you think?
