You could also just provide command-line/gui tools that run standalone from your creation applications. The artist works in their own workspace, and when they are ready to publish textures or designs or whatever, they run the tools from the command line to 'publish' textures to areas where other downstream departments can consume them. The tools can then do things like checking resolutions, colorspace, naming conventions, creating new representations/thumbnails/resolutions, etc. And they are application-agnostic, so you don't have to write a bunch of app-specific code and keep it updated.
