It simply can't work. Don't even try to implement, it's waste of time.
Just grep the tree, see how various packages use VCS-es. There's too
many differences, too many needs and -- most importantly -- VCS-es
change over time much more quickly than, say, unpackers.

Even *if* we get a SRC_URI VCS support that works for all consumers,
and that'd be awfully hard to do properly, it will eventually stop
being 'good enough' and require further changes. It will just become
never-ending story for a minor benefit.
