it might be.

My personal philosophy when comparing things to "how debian does it",
is to write up a top level abstract of "what it does",
[being as specific as possible, while explicitly  NOT including implementation
 details]

Then consider whether we need/want it

Then, IF the answer is yes, consider what implementations might be like.
