I had wanted to do this at one point too. It seems like muniversal should maybe make its copies during an earlier phase, but that will probably break existing ports using muniversal. For example if the copies were to be made in post-extract, that will break the patch phase. If the copies were made in post-patch, I'm not certain if that would break post-patch phases. (Would the post-patch block from the portgroup or the post-patch block(s) from the portfile go first?) Similar question about pre-configure.
