the equivalent paparazzi might be something like this

 <dl_settings NAME="Start">

      <dl_setting shortname="Align power"
        var="cps_aligning.ref_power" module="firmwares/blmc/cps_aligning"
        min="0.0" max="100.0" step="1.0" unit="1/32768" alt_unit="%%"
alt_unit_coef="0.003051758"
        persistent="true"/>

      <dl_setting shortname="Align duration"
        var="cps_aligning.duration" module="firmwares/blmc/cps_aligning"
        min="0.0" max="500.0" step="10" unit="1e2 us" alt_unit="ms"
alt_unit_coef="0.01"
        persistent="true"/>

</dl_settings>

Paparazzi has a GUI which reads the above description and display
sliders ( or more complex widgets). The description is also used to
generate the embedded code needed for setting/getting the value of the
mentioned variables. I was working lately on extending the protocol to
be able to atomically set/get a group of variables. This would be
useful for example for manipulating fractions or orientations.

If I recall correctly, we've had this service in Paparazzi since 2005.
