I think bsdconfig is the right landing zone for this (once it's tested -- check out the port sysutils/bsdconfig -- and committed).

bsdconfig is:
(a) scriptable
(b) pluggable
(c) modular
(d) Supports both Command-line (dialog) and GUI (Xdialog)
(e) is i18n-compatible
(f) written in sh(1) with very clean code that is properly scoped and consistent
