You know for simple status info and such, you can create web pages super-trivially, by just embedding field references in HTML. So:
Code: <html>
<body>
Temp is: $(MyThermo.CurrentTemp)
</body>
</html>
and that sort of thing. That makes it pretty easy to set up simple, static status pages in the web server. If you have a registered certificate, then it's also easy to make it secure to get to. Put it in the secure area so than a CQC login is required, and the web server will require simple digest authentication. Since you are always secure at that point via the certificate, it becomes plenty secure with minimal effort.

That's fairly easy as well, though you have to provide a simple CML-Bin handler on the web server side. Just use a standard HTML design tool. The buttons would just be forms that send out the appropriate URL with the appropriate parameters to do whatever your want it to do.

I don't know CML, no desire to learn. Even HTML is more work than I want to do.
