bq. The collections API allowed me to move the replicas around by
investigating the core names and locations,

What about the MOVEREPLICA command?

Although that still requires you to know things like node names and
replica names. It'd be waaaaay cool to have
some kind of drag-n-drop or wizard-driven capability, perhaps built on
top of that. In addition to Jan's
suggestions.

Best,
Erick
