Ok, before this myth gets stuck any more: |
14 |
FEATURES and RESTRICT are two independent entities. That *some* FEATURES |
15 |
have a matching RESTRICT value is more a coincidence that a design |
16 |
pattern. Also RESTRICT handles some things that have no matching entry |
17 |
in FEATURES (like the infamous RESTRICT=fetch for example) or have a |
18 |
different meaning than their matching FEATURES value (e.g. |
19 |
RESTRICT=mirror has nothing in common with FEATURES=mirror). |

PS: this isn't an argument for or against the original proposal. |
