I agree with most of the thread so far, but just wanted to highlight this:

Yes. This.
And this is why it's critical, absolutely critical, that the first one
or two implementations go in are as simple and clean as possible.
Otherwise seeing the commonalities and how to abstract them out will
be a complete headache, since only the person writing the driver will
be able to get a good grasp of it (alternatively, it will take a lot
of effort for someone to figure out, clean up, and see the bigger
picture).
