This is a good idea and it goes in the right direction of making everything possible inside an extension. So I’m definitely +1 for the general idea. Yes I agree that it would be nice to have the Migration Manager in its own module. +1 for you to start a design page and to discuss it on this list. It’s great that you guys are willing to spend time implementing this! Way to go!
