So, I can set up a mask, and can open up areas as visible.. however, as far as I can tell, there is no way to RE-MASK a visible area without removing and re-applying the mask?

Is there any scripting exposure for this? I haven't been able to find a way at all, and this seems like a really weird lack of functionality... I mean, it can't be hard, since most of the logic is already there to handle clearing mask areas, so am I just... blind and not able to find a way to ADD mask instead of clearing mask?

I've tried everything, holding modifiers, clicking all over, standing on one leg and chanting... but can't seem to find a way to do it.. also can't find any script exposure to the functionality, so.. is it really just not possible?!

Nope, there's no way currently to remask part of a map. I'm pretty sure that's on the feature request list (improved masking tools in general are on the list, I think). There's no scripting API exposure for masks, either.
