@Illviljan sorry for being late to the party.

The first comment is that I see the point of the feature at a theoretical level, but I'm at the third external backend that I'm writing and I didn't miss it. Adding an entrypoint is very easy and works seamlessly during development.

Do you have in mind any use case where this is more convenient than adding an entrypoint?

WRT the implementation, at the request of @shoyer and @jhamman, we ask backend developers to inherit from BackendEntrypoint, for the sake of consistency I would enforce it here as well, instead to use duck-typing.
