Something I'd like to have to ease the live template implementation would be a standardized eclass interface for every vcs, right now every eclass does more or less the same things BUT with slight differences and obviously with different names.

Now, I'd like to know which interface you'd consider good.

The live ebuild needs a way to preserve a reference (revision/hash/timestamp), right now some eclasses have variables to store the revision to be fetched from which branch that defaults to the main branch and the tip of it if unset. Leaving those unset in the template and saving those post install in the vdb should suffice.
