If these steps do what you need I think it will be pretty easy to streamline this with a custom script.

How important is it to have the extrusion live on the mouse pointer? What if it was only entered numerically in an input field, with the benefit being that you'd see the extruded result right as you were doing the rotation and it would remember the last value so if you're doing the same thickness repeatedly there wouldn't be any extra extrude step? Or would that be undesirable?
