I think this pretty much just another way of saying the same thing I
posted in
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-packaging/2006-August/msg00170.html : focus on the only real technical design issue now, and just reuse the implementation work which is already done as much as possible.

Also, the packaging draft linked to in the above message and the current
"standard" doc from which it is derived from should already contain all
the above info.  Maybe it just needs some restructuring and
clarifications in order to prominently specify what part of it is the
interface and what is the supporting reference implementation that makes
it possible to ship such packages with the current infrastructure.
