Default [Q] Gingerbread and Roms?

Is there any news of how we're going to go about flashing ROMs with Gingerbread installed? Is there a custom recovery in the works, or are developers going to have to build from the pre-rooted Gingerbread and ask users to .sbf back to Froyo and then install the ROM from the Froyo recovery?
