These sound like interesting ideas, but it also sounds like you might be 
recreating a lot of elements in the .jmx file on the command line.  I suspect 
the endpoint of such enhancements will be a JMeter scripting language that is 
easy to look at, manually edit, and less verbose than XML.

Still, it's definitely worth thinking about - my own personal preference is to 
bundle Jython with JMeter so that people can script in python and control 
JMeter with it (I like this because it's so easy to do).

However, I'm trying really hard to get 1.9 out the door.  There is some urgency 
for me to get it out as soon as possible in good shape, and I think it's best for 
the enhancements to hold off until after that.  In the meantime, much 
documentation needs to be written/upgraded, including javadocs.  I would 
greatly appreciate that kind of help from anyone out there (particularly if you've 
written a component - always nice to include the docs for it!).
