All right, that deals with the objection above.

In my view, vc-call-backend's main purpose is to facilitate 
extensibility and being able to abstract away the current backend. Which 
is not a goal in the present situation.

If you really prefer it, though, we can switch to it anyway, but better 
do it when we can avoid having to support Git < 1.9 (then the fallback 
can be easily done in the caller).
