install any app from any os or installer type, to your os?

imagine you could get any installation file, and install it on your machine, hassle free? from source to exe, from rpm to portage alternatives, and everything inbetween and besides. doesnt matter which you have, your package management has become fluent, with a vocabulary that expands as the technology does, and will install anything, without hassle and keep track of it all so things dont go screwey when you try to reverse out of installing stuff "just to try", with all the libs cleaned up... so, how about just for starters just the linux ones?

multiple repository integration in one os. if anyone does it first, it's got to be [someone from]...

ubuntu
gentoo
debian
slackware
mint
novell
opensuse
arch
some government backed foreign distro
a lone none affiliated programmer
a multi-affiliated programmer/team
me. i'll do it myself, and show you. here, like this...
me. i already have this done.
rpath
paladius (or wjat evur its speld!)
other obscure package management related developement project/team
other distro
mac
ms
bsd
solaris
irix
riscos
wine
vmware
virtualbox
other virtualisation team
aros
haiku
google
other corporation (with an open source solution)
other corporation (with a closed source solution)
david braben / frontier
kim jong il
other

(i was going to make this a poll, but then i noticed we'd only be allowed a ten horse race, n that didnt seem very democratic to me.)
