Up till now, the common operations across different package managers are mapped directly to Pacman commands, which is a good solution in the very beginning, but might constraint the scope of this project.
We wish to extract the syntax layer from those operations into a library, so that on day we might be able use a different front-end (eg. an apt-like one).

The scope of this issue seems to have a log of overlap with topgrade -- maybe some inspiration can be taken from there?

Would be cool to provide a different front-end for this in the form of a powershell module or something!

I do want to move forward on this, but currently the UI logic is deeply integrated into the subprocess execution logic, thus a frontend/backend separation might be required before this can happen.

The timeline is highly uncertain, unfortunately.
