This part I understood it well in your last message

Do you mean here, that each time I run make config in a port directory I sh=
ould
always have the same preset options? (given that make.conf hasn't changed?)=
if
yes, I didn't do that for one reason I often rerun make config to be sure o=
f the
chosen one. I don't know how I'll be able to check them otherwise? should m=
ake
showconfig be also adapted?
Why not just add a tag ? (simple character) to the UI to mark the default
overwritten by make.conf?
