Yeah, trivial code even for an occasional python programmer like me. 
Probably most of the work is understanding the converter boilerplate 
and/or undocumented (AFAICT) things like

  * "--source" option
    In example it has "hg convert --source customsource ...", should
    this be '--source-type'? and if it should be then how inform 'hg
    convert' that it is working on svn repository? (or count on autodetect?)
  * "super(source, self)" probably should be super(customsource, self)"
    in example customization?

I may have more questions after I actually try to put something together...

I cloned the hg source to look around, but I'm wondering what the 
Mercurial source install downloads are, e.g. 
http://mercurial.selenic.com/release/windows/mercurial-3.2.3.win-amd64-py2.7.exe
