Hi Chris:
IMHO, you have two choices:
1) You can design some code changes that could be committed back to the
project that allow for selective menu/form display much like the Catalog
Manager allows for an end-user to modify some of the functionality of a
store. If you choose to go that route, then you would most likely create
a new component etc. etc. etc.
2) You can do what I have done in the past, and for which there isn't
really a "Best Practice" guide: Modify the screen/form widgets and
comment out the stuff you don't want to be displayed or create a new
screen/form widget for each of the web pages you would like to modify
and insert them inline with the other screens for the application(s) in
question.
The rest of this discussion will depend on which route you decide to take.
Regards,
Ruth

Hello Chris:
This doesn't sound like an "extension" in the OFBiz sense. It sounds
more like you want to modify some existing web pages. Is that correct?

How do you extend the webapp?
Many thanks...

The standard practice is to extend the webapp in you hot-deploy

and customize the desired forms, menus and screens.
