You'll save coding the interface, and the user will be able to integrate this into more complex workflows, having iterations, and much more. Ask @volaya for howto, or have a look to other Processing plugins.

It would be nice to have Processing plugins described properly in the official QGIS documentation. I have not been able to find anything useful for plugin developers. Looking at other Processing plugins is an option, but I was hoping to get an even better understanding of this before starting.

Hopefully we'll have instructions soon, thanks to Victor.

Processing has a "Multi-ring buffer (constant distance)" tool nowadays that will create the non-overlapping parts including a ringId value denoting the number of the ring (1 is the central one) and a distance value for the maximum distance of each ring (e.g. for rings up to 10 units, the outermost ring will have a 10).

The plugin still offers more, e.g. the varying distances per ring.
