If you don't mind saying, what parts of the code would be relevant/useful for this (writeTitlePage and CALIBREONLYSAVECOL look like good leads), and what are the most likely roadblocks?

Generating and injecting the title page are the easy parts. The hard part is fitting it into the existing FFF plugin logically, intuitively, and cleanly.
If you are of a mind to write code, it might be worthwhile to consider either making a general purpose plugin for creating and injecting a metadata jacket (aka title page) from the existing Calibre data, or improving the existing metadata jacket feature in Calibre.
