If there is more than token interest in this, please make the request on overseers@sourceware.org. (FWIW, your proposed workflow for a git mirror seems to me a bit clumsy. For our systemtap git/cvs mirror, there is no problem with using native git for development (git pull/commit/branch/merge etc.) and having a CVS working tree only for final cvs commit purposes.) - FChE
