Did you try to use Web Map Context documents? It is a little tedious but would be the cmost comprehensive solution to your problem. This is how new services and layers are added to the Mapbender instance of the Geoportal-RLP (http://www.geoportal.rlp.de). Most of the code of that solution has already merged into core and is currently available for testing as 2.4.1 rc1
