There is an upcoming feature that's going to allow to use interfaces.

I doubt it's going to support generics though.

Also, I'm not sure mixing core types with higher (or lower) level concepts is the right path. It increases complexity in the code generator, it would probably be a huge BC break and the benefit would be negligible.

With the new interface support you could accept an interface that is able to install packages in a distro-agnostic way and return a Container with all the necessary packages. That way you can enforce your desired abstraction in your API.
