This has been tried many times, including (but not limited to) TDF (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TenDRA_Distribution_Format) and ANDF (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architecture_Neutral_Distrib...).

I believe ANDF was the basis for some failed UNIX standard in the early 90s, but that's long before my time.

There's at least one more recent attempt along the same lines (forgotten its name).
