Subject:   If the port is designed to have a Motif version, a GTK version, and a NOGUI version, can these be made into flavors, instead of options?

The port can be built to have the exact same UI but alternatively based 
on Motif, GTK, or no GUI at all. In each case, the plist is exactly the 
same.


Can these be made into flavors: FLAVORS=nogui motif gtk ?

My opinion: this is a good idea. The package is originally designed to 
have 2 UI incarnations, and flavors beautifully match this polymorphism.

Is there any reason that flavors shouldn't be used in this case?


Thanks,

Yuri
