I'm afraid you've been mis-informed.  The PHP herd has provided a set of
default USE flags to go into the profiles, and there's a comment at the
bottom of the bug clearly stating that they're currently being tested.

This point is another example of an attempt to enforce an undocumented
QA policy, which is where I made my input, as the architect of our new
(and well-received) PHP packages.  ... and then the discussion
deteriorated into something I'm not particularly proud of, for my part
in it.

Now, back to the topic at hand.  Either you have genuine QA issues for
webapp-config, which we'd love to know about so that we can fix them, or
you don't.  Which is it?

Best regards,
Stu
