Hi Jacob.
For the moment it isn't possible to extend the Composer with custom
plugins. It's sonething that will be discussed for the next Report Engine
(QGIS > 3.0)
I've built a Python plugin that uses the composer widgets (composition,
items, etc.) within a custom interface but you can only use the building
blocks by yourself. E.g. you can open/create abd manage a composition
inside your own widget and add items to it. In your case they could be text
or html items, for header and footer.
