Does make you think there could be a single universal lens model...
...and in fact I have just finished writing one. It is designed to drop into libpano, where it will provide a fast new projection type to handle all images made with lenses, with all parameters (and sensible subsets) optimizable by panotools. It can also be used in C++ programs independently of libpano. I'll be testing it first in calibrate_lens.
