VHDL's generate construct (and the "for" loop used in processes) is not only for module instantiations. It's indeed capable of making what you demonstrated.
Anyhow, as a hardware engineer I find Perl very useful - it's automating a lot of tasks for me - including HDL code generation. When it comes to us logic designers / embedded engineers, Perl is one of the most useful and respected languages.

  Indeed, I'm not very familiar with VHDL's generate construct.
