You have to do it the old fashioned way.

Find out what the flash guide number is, estimate the distance to your subject, divide that into your guide number, and the result is your aperture.
What? And do math? Hey, that'll be the day.

No, seriously ... I use manual flash exposure all the time (mostly with multiple external strobes) and I agree 100 percent with your post. Sometimes it's just easier to do things "the old fashioned way."
