Hrm. Don't we get that benefit only if the overlays switch over to
using the same distributed VCS that the main tree moves to?
The short answer is yes.
The long answer is that it's much easier to interconvert histories
between most DVCS's than to convert back and forth between file-based
history systems like CVS. One could plausibly and sanely export any
commits from their mercurial overlay into e.g. git (or whatever ends up
happening), suitable for merging into the official tree.
