I'm already working on git.eclass. I've got some nice ideas for that one
(or should
I say, ideas, that I would want in it? ;-)).

But I don't think, that they would benifit from a generic framework,
since it's just
a few lines anyway and since every scm is somewhat different, maybe it
would blow
up the generic thing.
