Hello,

Some clues

(2) I have looked for existing PyQGIS custom applications without success.
Do any exist?
>> Quantum navigator http://www.mapserver.sk/~wonder/qnavigator/
>> OpenOceanMap https://launchpad.net/openoceanmap
The two examples are listed from the "Desktop GIS" book (see below for
reference)

(3) Does anyone have suggestions for how best to proceed (i.e. is there a
good book on the QGIS and QT APIs?)
>> Desktop GIS: Mapping the Planet with Open Source Tools
http://pragprog.com/titles/gsdgis/desktop-gis
Some infos about Qgis plugin programming (some pages about, see table of
contents to make choice)
>> Python cookbook http://www.qgis.org/pyqgis-cookbook/ (I supose you're
already aware of it...)
>> Rapid GUI Programming with Python and Qt
http://www.qtrac.eu/pyqtbook.html (the best one on PyQT)
>> GUI Programming with Python: QT Edition
http://www.commandprompt.com/community/pyqt/
>> PyQT documentation (right navigation bar)
