I think overall that looks pretty good. Are you planning on making a submission?
Thanks for answer, sorry I took so long to get back to you.
It seems like we agree on the broad strokes, so let's go ahead.

The more I am thinking about it (helping Raphaël with the document), the more I 
thinking that one of the most major roadblock we need to deal with is the test 
suite. We have hundreds of thousand of line of test file all relying on 
specific hash to be produced and consumed. We will need to design a good way to 
express the used of different hash function in tests. Otherwise we won't be 
able to seriously test the various hash using options.

Honestly I think I'd start by having a few small tests that exercise the basis 
with blake2b, then at some point we can set some tests to blake2b and some to 
sha1 and that'll be fine.

Yeah, starting with a smaller state to get the basic to run is probably a good approach. However, soon enought we will need to exercise the full test suite.
