I am not sure if I can say I actually have a good method.
I used UV Editor with Lightwave modeler to create a cylinder based UV map.
It did allow me to put the dirt marks in place but I have not been able to
put undistorted text on the surface. The logo and text in place now are
planer mapped with scaling to make it look right.

I am guessing I am going to have to position each point where I want it to
be. None of the UV programs seems to build the polygons to proportion. Like
you, I am in search of a UV mapping/editing program that works like I want
it to. I am even contemplating writing one.
