The repository field could be constructed as a mapping:

repository: [svn] https://svn.versiondude.net/randys/CPAN-Metadata
I think it would be good to keep the field as a URL. Why does it have to
actually give the direct access point. Why could it not be a link to a
page that gives details about the repository.
I second the URL idea. Among other things, it avoid having to maintain
types and access data for different types of repositories. Unless we
expect automated tools to be using META.yml to access repositories,
let's leave it a simple URL.
If people really want a direct access point, let them do it as a pseudo-URL:
repository: cvs:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
