There are ways to script the applications Hugin is using. Maybe someone will help with those. Another possible method, which I am not sure has ever been discussed but seems pretty obvious as a brute force automation scheme, is to create a simple application that populates a Hugin pto file with either all the required information or almost all the required information. The pto file is a simple text file that you can reverse engineer. Then run the pto file through Hugin or its batching utilities.
