One might as well define different admin commands as different message
names. We have had a pretty strict 1-1 relationship between messages and
commands in the past (ie, we don't have a Request command with get/put
arguments).
I implemented admin commands in Fred earlier this summer, so it is
pretty trivial to add such commands as subclasses of
Freenet.message.client.AdminMessage. Authentication can be done either
via password or by requiring an authenticated connection to a certain
identity. The only real issue is speccing the commands, and the manner
in which node node specific extentions to FCP should work.

You only _need_ to do it once, but it would be convient not to have to
worry about saving it somewhere yourself.
