I know that this is only a small part of what you're talking about
doing, but FWIW there's a ticket asking for automatic creation of a
version when a milestone is completed.  I attached a patch to it for
an IMilestoneChangeListener and a plugin that uses that interface to
implement the request in the ticket.  Might be worth a look:
