Shawn, what do you want to do with this, it seems the vcs devs are not
very interested in this feature, should I implement it as described
above? That is:
  * If you use any option that is stream-changing you should include
"feature tool=git" in your stream
  * import-marks and export-marks are made into features
  * "option vcs" is ignored if vcs is a different vcs
  * "option vcs" must be recognised if vcs is this vcs
