I very much hope this is not going to be the official policy of VC
development in Emacs.  VC should IMO remain VCS-agnostic in its most
important features, and "C-x v v" is definitely such a feature of VC.
That's basically the only real raison d'être of VC nowadays, because
otherwise let's just obsolete VC and switch to Magit.
