Actually it seems like this would be a pretty good route to go, but yes with an additional UV unwrapping tool used to set up the UV mapping for you, the default mapping saved from MoI is not set up for painting.

I think PaQ has had good results using UVLayout for this purpose: http://www.uvlayout.com/
