The main point of the SEWs were to fight Grimm and to be elite warriors. So there's no telling what those abilities can do to people.

As for Salem's proxies, I believe she gives them the freedom to enact her plan however they see fit, like recruiting a team as Cinder did. But to track down the Maidens and extract the power requires said team to beat the Maiden and then use the glove. However, this does not seem like the only objective.
