Of course it depends on exactly what you are trying to achieve, but I see no
problem in principal that would prevent you from coming up with something
fairly close to that based on Rev as it stands.  You can certainly run it
faceless and design the sort of inheritance you need, provided that you do
so relatively early on in the design of your solution.
