MEP / Railing / Curtain wall alike addon + library

Hi,

 

Does anyone know if it is possible to create such a tool like the ones mentioned in the title? I am about to refactor an addon (rewrite basically), and it would be really nice to be able to do the same mechanism like what the MEP addon does. I would like to have an object which I can switch to edit mode, so the individual parts can be updated one by one. I would need a "container" object so when editing it on a global level I can set the high level settings, also the user could see a fine UX regarding rubberlines, etc. But when entering edit mode the same would happen like in the mentioned addons, everything is disabled, except the editing of the subcomponents of the assembly.

I assume besides the addon work this needs a special library as well, if it is possible to achieve my goal at all.
