All the authentication would be processed through OAuth (and SSL), and you wouldn't have to connect to the server in order to change the map, etc.That sounds pretty overengineered and overcomplicated, and you'd rely on a proprietary third-party service. If you build an SSL interface into the server, why not use it to control the server directly? And if you want a tool that allows you to administer your server from anywhere, a web interface would be a lot more useful.
