I've done something along these lines for `urgrep'[1], a package to 
provide something like `M-x rgrep' that works across the seemingly 
ever-growing list of grep-like tools out there. I'm still working on 
improving the documentation before I think about putting it on ELPA, but 
maybe there are some bits in there that would be useful here. I'd be 
happy to coordinate on this if there's interest.
