With such different philosophies between different back-ends, we really have no choice. Keep in mind that this command is supposed to be used very rarely, if at all, by users who know what they are doing= , including what it does with the current back-end. The only other choice is not to implement it for modern VCSes at all, which IMO would be a pity.
