Andrew,
Rotator controller: DDE is provided for your client such as PST Rotator. Doppler shift: Yes, for both the SDR (of course) and an external radio used for transmit (TS-2000, IC-910, FT-991 ...). Satellite priority: You select the passes you are interested in for the next 96 hours.

Matthew,
Yes - it is quite some project but I've broken the back of it and tomorrow / early next week will be transmitting with my FT-991 and receiving with the Airspy, all controlled via one software package.

Wow, looks like quite a project! That will be really nice to have everything in one package.
The SDRplay is 12 bit, I believe. Right now I'm going to keep everything simple as I can. Don't have a place to mount a rotator/array
anyways.

But,
Only an 8-bit device, therefore with limited dynamic range. The AirSpy Mini (the AirSpy dongle flavour) https://www.itead.cc/airspy-mini.html is a much better option, especially
with the latest software support in SDR#.
FWIW a full-blown station is what I'm working on myself: http://sdr-satellites.com/

RTL SDR dongle
I see it can do multiple freqs at once
Depends on how far you want to go - you can have a fully blown rotator controlled and radio station
