It's particularly messy since addresses are essentially just a random signal that can be totally separate to the controller hardware which might be adding more complexity early on in building up your model than is really desirable. It will need to be dealt with but perhaps not right now. I2C might be easier. The initial issue with SPI is that you really need to do something like bring out individual slots on the bus rather than the bus as a whole since you're going to need a remapping layer to map chip selects on the module to chip selects on the host board.
