I use Virtual Prestaging ([PRERELEASE] Virtual Prestaging) by @mbishop to solve this problem. While I do use Rule Machine, it would work with webcore too. The basics is to manipulate a virtual bulb and its settings apply to actual bulbs when they are turned on. This would work for options 1 and 2. To help with option 3, you could develop scenes that activate on a switch. This switch could then disable the virtual bulb when "on." This would give you the new temporary settings as desired. To reset you would just need to turn off the scene switch and your bulbs would reset to whatever the current virtual bulb settings are. This would allow for the virtual bulb to continuously being modify such that if your scene happened during a mode change, the real life bulb would still be in the correct state after the scene was turned off.
