Hi Chuck,
For task management, we are developing a framework that helps with the construction of task interfaces in an easy and configurable way, which can be very useful to create a single application like the one you need. Of course you have to write this applicacion, but it will be much easier for you. You can take a look at it:

It is work in progress and hope it can help, so feel free to check it and ask any questions/suggestions.
Thanks!
Demian
