Wanted to include a partial response below to the list about extending
Cockpit, in case it helps anyone.

Cool. And it's also really easy to add UI (eg: plugins) to Cockpit, so
if you have a workflow that needs extra UI it could be done like so:

http://stef.thewalter.net/creating-plugins-for-the-cockpit-user-interface...
http://stef.thewalter.net/using-dbus-from-javascript-in-cockpit.html

You can also execute apps, write files, etc... All the current internal
API that's usable from the UI is documented here:

Not all stable yet, but we want to have it stable shortly.
