Should there not be more interaction with the rest of the framework on
clock pauses - the bus will need to be started to do transfers for
example?

Is the controller the best place to initiate bus pausing? It's
surprising to me that it would be, the bus being idle isn't something
that needs controller specific knowledge so I'd expect the framework to
have standard support for this.
