Rob,

This functionality has been implemented in TGraphAsymmErrors. Use draw options "2", "3" or '4" as indicated in the doc. see:
http://root.cern.ch/root/htmldoc/TGraphErrors.html#TGraphaSymmErrors:Paint

You can create a TGraphAsymmErrors from a TH1. See:

  TGraphAsymmErrors::TGraphAsymmErrors(const TH1 *h)   // TGraphAsymmErrors constructor importing its parameters from the TH1

     object passed as argument
  // the low and high errors are set to the bin error of the histogram.

and

  TGraphAsymmErrors::TGraphAsymmErrors(const TH1 *pass, const TH1 *total,

             Option_t *option)
  // Creates a TGraphAsymmErrors by dividing two input TH1 histograms:   // pass/total. (see TGraphAsymmErrors::BayesDivide)
