Why don't you let the interested teams run the scripts and generate

sanity checks.
What would those sanity checks be?
You fetch the list from a known debian host (like several other
services already
do, including ftp-master or release). If you define the format to be
e.g. yaml
or json, with an array of binNMUs to schedule, each one with
- a source package
- a version
- a list of architectures
- a reason
You can just then call 'wb nmu' with the right arguments and the right
quoting.
The sanity checks would be to make sure the arguments have the right
format.
