The way Yuriy wants to do it is not necessarily wrong.  He might end up
with cleaner code if he starts by making a cmake-3 implementation and then
figures out how to back-port to cmake-2, rather than starting with the
more limited language to begin with.

Or maybe not.  But I doubt it's open and shut.
