You could use the binary rhn-channel (or spacewalk-channel, i think?) on
the client side to manage the association of channels. Bummer is that
you need to provide credentials to this program in order to do so.

Nope, not really. The point of Spacewalk is to provide a single point of
entry for all software management needs. It is AFAIK not possible to
only sync metadata without the packages.
