Just out of interest my immediate thoughts on this were with regards to security - did you have to do that with elevated privileges in the control, or just accessed by a user allowed to activate the feature?

We had to do something similar, so we added a control in the my site master page that would activate a feature that would change the quicklaunch navigation. The control would check if the feature is activated, and if so - do nothing. if not, would show the user the "please wait" screen, until the feature has finished activating. This way, even existing sites got the customisation (and we had a platform for deploying new features to existing sites without having to run a script). I'd still recommend a script instead - because it does hamper performance for the control to do that every time the page loads - but we had a way around it (the feature also changed master pages to one that did not have the control). I dont remember why we didnt script it - I just know there was a very good reason.

You can also Audience Target these which is great for fixing team site links for different departments. I believe the Quick Launch links and headings can only be modified on a per site basis via My Site -> Site Settings -> Quick Launch. If you wanted to provision new sites with different links and headings you would need to create a provisioning feature. If you wanted to customise existing sites I think your only option is code.or PowerShell?
