I have to admit I am worried about slippery slope. I'd hate to support
a VCS that only has 2 or 3 repos on it. Especially if its not one we
have in-house expertise with.

I tend to think if you can't use one of the vc systems already
provided, you need specialty hosting and with that, probably a lot of
care and feeding. We are already offering the most common SCMs in use
(except CVS ^^ see above). Always saying 'yes' and allowing new
things to pop up is not maintainable in the long term. I am actually
surprised we offer as many SCMs as we do.
