Hi Jen,
I was hoping for someone to say "yes, we did that for our Galaxy, here is the wrapper code", but I'll settle for encouragement. ;)
As you will have seen, I'm focusing on the NCBI BLAST+ wrappers at the moment, but wrapping the command line versions of TMHMM v2.0 and SignalP v3.0 would probably be next on my list of things to do in Galaxy.

Hi all, The TMHMM v2.0 and SignalP v3.0 tools are free to download and use for academics, but commercial or other users would need to negiotiate a license: http://www.cbs.dtu.dk/cgi-bin/nph-sw_request?tmhmm http://www.cbs.dtu.dk/cgi-bin/nph-sw_request?signalp There is nothing to stop me writing and sharing wrappers for the tools, and installing and using TMHMM v2.0 and SignalP v3.0 on a local Galaxy server for academic use. However, I guess their licence would prevent TMHMM v2.0 and SignalP v3.0 being included in the "public" Galaxy server? One option might be to ask CBS if they would allow Penn State University to make these tools available via their public Galaxy server. Has this issue of "academic only" licences come up before for Galaxy wrapped tools? Alternatively I might be able to write wrappers for the CBS hosted TMHMM and SignalP webservice which appears to be free to use by anyone, but that seems less robust and they may be unhappy with the likely increased usage.
