%%%Similar to the select linked (ctrl+L) when in face mode with uv seams, but also works using material, creased edges and sharp edges. Allows to select multiple 'islands' at once or to maintain an exxisting selection and only expand on the active face.

%%%Hi,

i have made a small patch in C, which simply extends the Select Similar Operator by an option to extend the existing selection by its linked geometry. Not sure, but it might be a simpler solution for your problems, since Select similar covers already a lot of your desired features afaik.
If you dont mind, i would like to share it here with you :)
