Hey Michael,

While I don't know of a plugin for interactive use, I've been using and
maintaining sinteractive (https://github.com/mcsaucy/sinteractive). It
basically schedules a screen session and then reattaches to it while
forwarding your X session.

It fills your requirement for prompting for resource allocation parameters
and supports configurable default values. It's been quite handy for
scheduling graphical applications or those times I'm feeling lazy/impatient
and want to `make -j 60`.

Hope that helps!
