Public bug reported:

There is no simple method, such as eselect for Gentoo, to switch between OpenGL 
implementations. Some users (like me! :-D ) have the ability to switch between 
an onboard video card and a dedicated graphics card either on their laptop or 
desktop (ie Sony SZ laptop series can switch between an Intel onboard graphics 
chip and an Nvidia 7xxx card). Gentoo provides the ability to switch between 
OpenGL implementations via the eselect opengl utility. It would be really 
helpful if there were a simple way to switch between these implementations 
since the only way I've found to do so breaks whenever Xorg or Nvidia's drivers 
are updated.
This might also be useful for switching between proprietary drivers and FLOSS 
drivers in a more fluid fashion.

Thanks for all your work!
