Hi Calvin,

Not sure it is exactly what you need, but I would have a look at two
plugins Olivier Dalang wrote some time ago
https://github.com/olivierdalang/VectorBender
https://github.com/olivierdalang/RasterBender

He is the original author of the advanced digitizing panel as a plugin.
These are QGIS 2 but it should not be a great effort to port them.

Cheers
Denis
