Not really the answer to your question, but maybe my recent experience will help.
A lot of apps can export settings. Having recently joined the alternative android club, that was a definitely a time saver. On my last phone transfer I spent a few day when I had time reconfiguring every app, this time around all my main apps were pretty much fully setup in an hour.
For an "app list", I just took a screen shot of my home screen layout and app drawer. Had everything downloading in about 10 minutes. Home screen took a bit to put back together. If you can export the launcher config, maybe restoring it after you've downloaded everything will restore home screen layout too...no clue, I never tried that one.
