That sounds nice. It also means that more distributions are likely to benefit "by accident" even if they don't know to advertise what they can do.
It is also plausible to use reflection at class construction time to determine whether the method is available. That would let AbstractDistribution use the inverse distribution to implement a generator if possible.
