Definitely not a manual operation, nor one that is supported by readily available US market CCs and inverters. I refer back, once again, to some UK-marketed systems which integrate the CC, inverter, and special heater loads into a single system. At that point you can either say that the microprocessor running the integrated system is doing the management, or you can say that there is a PLC hidden inside somewhere. The results are the same.
I agree 100% that trying to do this with discrete standalone CC, inverter and load control, even if they are all from the same manufacturer, is going to be a major circus and I would hate to be responsible for designing and engineering it. Definitely not a DYI project for the typical off-gridder, or even one with an engineering background.
PS: As I understand one of the systems, based on their literature, the load side involves essentially an inverse MPPT circuit which allows them to put a varying amount of power into a constant resistance heater.
