Yes, definitely - I think adding support for other vaults is a great idea.

Yes, I would say it's pretty straight-forward - the current vault
support has been designed to be modular and easily-extendable, so that
a minimal amount of API integration is required with the other vault
mechanisms, provided they have well-defined and well-documented APIs.
That's not to say there won't be any issues or challenges to get it
working, just that the current support was designed with future
expansion into other vaults in mind.
