Thanks. It's very encouraging to hear recommendations like that. :-)
I'm thinking of putting a small webserver for statistics, but will not for configuration. It is much easier to make an ncurses based interface than a web based one.
Another idea is to put a Java ssh client on the embdedded webserver so that you don't need to carry putty/ssh with you.
About upgrade - none of your configuration files should be touched by the upgrade. Well, configuration files/scripts before build 2290 were not stabilized, but after that all upgrades should be backwards compatible.

I Applaud Vladimir's work with WISP-Dist I've deployed 25+ as CPE's
with Teletronics CPR Hardware (133amd, 8M flash, TT(PrisimII) 100mw
cards) and have had very few problems. Most of the problems I ran into
were configuration mistakes and due to WISP being based on the Debian
flavor, I believe, and with the majority of our experience is with the
RedHat and Mandrake Flavors there are console differences to work
through.. Other than that the remote upgrade is a bit tricky ( I suggest
using the devel scripts to modify the default configuration on the new
*.lrp and *.cfs packages before pushing them up since the default
Vladimir uses most likely doesn't match your network ) I should maybe
rephrase this by stating that the after upgrade is tricky.. The push of
new files to the system works great.
I would love to see things like a gui config (other than the
ncurses) web,php,cgi for example. BUT this would put the code size way
over 8meg. There again flash card prices are coming down it may be a
possibility.
overall I would recommend using WISP-Dist

What is the best LEAF for this purpose? The WISP seems like it's designed for base stations and not customer premises equipment.
I designed WISP-Dist for both customers and APs.
