Sounds like a cycle. Have you considered simplifying the selection of the relevant controllers, like a menu or shelf button, and using the regular old translate/rotate manipulator? Translation doesn't typically require a change to any given pivot, and I think the rotate manipulator has an option for rotating multiple pivots around a common pivot, without actually changing their pivots.
