Thanks Wayne. My primary thought is that the "main" kicad package will basically run default CMake flags--that way, when the Kicad devs decide to change the features, it changes automatically in my build. I have a Github plugin build as well, and I plan to offer it in parallel.
This effort has been a year of weird side paths, but we're getting to the end of the tunnel!
