Excellent point, I think we could safely argue that if we only expose
'import' and 'export' (so adhere to the fast-import/fast-export format
that is already widely used), that it is indeed not a derative work.
Also, becaus of how we set up the remote helpers (as drop in
binaries), we shouldn't have to worry too much about distributing?
