I have some queries about full text integration. Can I contact you off-list?

Exporting variables and executing rebuild scripts is nothing but
Bash's functionality.
But perl does provide a way to execute bash commands. So I think you
don't need separate .sh files but just modify the existing Koha code.
Another advantage is Koha runs as a CGI application. So what you are
saying is possible.

The only problem I see here is, rebuilding a zebra index requires
superuser privileges. So I think it's not a good idea to provide a
user with such a "button". If you read Koha Installation Doc, they
have provided a CRON script which runs every 5 minutes to rebuild
zebra index. Of course you can adjust that interval anytime.

(I hope you are using Debian or equivalent GNU/Linux distribution to
run Koha on)
