Repairing photos in Aperture?

I scanned some photos I had developed (from film) into Aperture and I was fixing some things (white dots and some other small film defects). I used the Repair tool to eliminate some white spots on the prints. This works pretty well, but it's pretty time consuming, and I'm wondering if there's a way to do this more easily/efficiently. I also have Photoshop CS3, but I'm hoping to stay in Aperture if at all possible.

And yes, I know the easy fix is to shoot digital, but at the moment I'm shooting for a class in film, so I'm stuck with it for now.
