Well I assume Ciaran wants to forbid it because he is attempting to
write a PMS compliant PM; but in order to use these ebuilds properly
he has to emulate the unspecified behavior that the ebuilds rely on
upon. His claim is that the council is supposed to forbid this
behavior (presumably to make his job less horrible) but I don't see
them beating down your door to change it (and the behavior is not
new.)
