Lots of Portal functionally would be nice to use as a stand alone feature.
But implementing it tied to command line parameters or some COM/DLL approach would make restrictive or non-portable.
Have you every considered implement a macro language to drive the whole interface?
Reference: Lauterbach Trace32 Emulator/JTAG interface. Whole GUI interface is driven by a macro language. and it prints the commands at the command prompt as you use them so you can actually "learn" how to use it by simply clicking on the pre-configur'ed icons and toolbar's supplied.
It is ugly as heck, but its stability is unequaled because they can drive it for testing purposes without having to resort to Mock/Scraper..etc for simulated user input/output.
Script test, Find Node, Firmware Upgrade....etc
