Whilst I'm, by all means, no expert on this; I think when you look into it,
you'll find that the eselect and update-alternatives functions are highly
equivalent, so you should find it feasible to do the port the other way
around, and translate the 'update-alternatives' to 'eselect'. Ideally if
you can keep within the frameworks Gentoo already provides, this should
make integration and maintenance a little easier!

Otherwise, it sounds like you've got the size of the problem in hand, and I
wish you all the best with the project!
Best regards,
