Absolutely - JSON-Schema is designed to be extended at will, I've 
personally worked on project where we built up some really complex data 
entry UI's based entirely on JSON-Schema.

Given a few extra schema properties, a CLI could easily be generated on 
the fly based on schemas downloaded and cached from API itself.

I might try find an hour or two over the weekend to knock up an example :)
