I wouldn't consider it, if it's thought for unix software only; I would always only want one single update mechanism in the system. And what good would it bring? - we have all the tools that should be in the distribution in our source repository. - it's arguably a good thing to keep those up to date. - users should only care about updating those tools when there is a potentially security hole - all other updates should be managed by updating Haiku. - at least I don't see the need to have many other unix tools on Haiku, than those that are already part of Haiku.
