It was suggested to me to post here because #1) it's a policy
discussion rather than a technical one, and #2) it reaches a bigger
audience as many devs have tuned out to gentoo-dev@ ..
As for your previous statement -- I was not aware of a policy that
excludes EAPI bumps from occurring on stable packages. This would
certainly suffice to alleviate the original concerns and probably be
more effective as a policy than always requiring revbump on EAPI change.
