I see a web console as offering the same features than the shell, so
imho, everything available from the web should be available from the
lower level shell also.

What about building the rollback into the features service ? So that
if the installation fails, it would leave the runtime in the same
state that it was before installing the bundles.   If everything is
define by a feature, the state would only be the list of installed
feature which may be way easier to manage.
