How in darktable can I arrange a set of modules to be available when needed?

Only do that when you need it and when you know what you are doing.
I’ve never felt the need to change the pixelpipe order of the modules (then again, I don’t use LUTs)

For the rest of your post: what you describe fits with styles, something you asked about in other threads.
If those don’t fit your needs, why not?
