I would think you would let the distribution choose the backend and that way you use what ever is supported on that platform. Then things like gnome/gstreamer/telepathy settings are shared between the various interfaces on that plaform which is useful for dual interface devices such as the XO-1.5 which can switch between gnome/sugar. For migration I presume we would be able to use the same strategy that gnome uses.
