I can't comment on this. The answer probably depends on the motives why
monotone was created and what kind of problems the original developers faced
with other revision control systems. There is an introduction at
http://venge.net/monotone/ and some information in the FAQ. However it is
not clear to me what the key features are and what other features were
simply developed to support the key features.
If I read for example the answer to "What is the networking protocol?" in
the FAQ I'm not sure if netsync as it looks like today is a key feature of
monotone. If it is then copying trust policies around does not belong to
monotone. If it is not then monotone could be changed indeed. Is there any
document which says what the explicit goals of monotone are?
