My first instinct is that there will be one "best" renderer for any
specific system. So swapping out renderers at runtime or between runs
doesn't make sense. Plus that would be a *nightmare* to code up! There will
most likely be platform-specific code though, and options to enable or
disable at build time.

For the most part yes. It gets interesting for materials &
shaders-as-content -- some might be specific to the renderer or targeted
game engine. This is still very much open for design.

 From one release to the next you mean? Please clarify.
