Here is what I have been working with up to this point.  

 I took a closer look at the script you posted, and I like your idea of using a list.  My way, were I able to get it working, would get very ugly very fast.  With that being said, don't pay much attention to the attached file, since I will pursue a new course of action with a list.

As to your example with the blender node, you raise a very good point.  I don't think it would break the process, but would reduce the number of successful outcomes to 1/number of image maps in the chain.  I can't think of any way to avoid that without being able to find some clue or assignment left by the developer, but since there isn't really standardization I don't see that being possible.  I'm not too worried about it though, since I can't think of a single product that uses proper application of the node system (but not saying there aren't any out there); most products I see/own simply change the  reference image to deal with masks, tattoos, etc.   

I'm done for tonight, gonna play with it tommorrow and report back.
