I believe there was a similar product that did pretty much the same thing 3-4 years ago. Would anyone recall? What happened to them? I don't know if I would like controlling my personal stuff in a public environment.

IMified? Was acquired by Voxeo in 2009. Was the same kind of tool, but on IM networks rather than Twitter.

Maybe IFTTT can react to specific tweets.

I bet they can, but then you'll need a separate recipe for each different command, and as a user you'll need to enable each command before you can use it. This way you just start by tweeting and it just works (after 1st oauth process that is, that is initiated as a reply to your tweet)

afaik you can't do that with IFTTT This is the most close trigger "New tweet by @me including @replies"
