I was definitely shooting my mouth off to some extent. I'd defer to your experience for sure. I took a look at your project pages briefly and I'm going to spend more time looking them later. It definitely looks neat, and much more "feature-ful" than I'd be looking for. I'm particularly interested in looking at your modular configuration system.

My needs definitely don't exercise corner cases. Most of the UniFi gear I've got out there is just running a single SSID w/ WPA-RADIUS and a RADIUS-assigned VLAN. Here or there I've got an SSID w/ a PSK and a hard-set VLAN. Nothing too fancy. Adopting new APs quickly and easily based on a "magic" DNS name, alerting when an AP disappears, and syslog to show association/roaming/disassociation events is about all I want. I'm putting Customer-owned gear in small offices w/ under 10 APs, rather than being a service provider.

Interesting information, thanks for sharing. Definitely doable by adding also the monitoring module, which would show you associated clients in a chart. But it's not as easy to set up as Ubiquiti though. I hope in the future it will be.
