any suggestion for what release types, statuses, etc. to use for one-offs like soundcloud, youtube, etc. uploads?

one-offs as in just a single song.
2012-05-30 15139, 2012

VxJasonxV
also, more specifically, one of those one-offs is a mashup of two songs, does that change status?

VxJasonxV, only difference from the old way is that all NATs will go into that same [nat] listing in Picard, rather than one [nat] per artist

just give me a button that creates a release with all the data that IS there, and I'll fill in the meta stuff. official/bootleg/promo/etc.

if I'm understanding correctly, your two best options are the API, or the Database. The previous link allows you to get access to the data in the database directly (which is prefered, much less load on MBz itself)
