Just adding a note on this one- the original technical reason for
this policy (portage inability to run from just the saved env dump)
is no longer an issue.
If people want to allow eclasses to have fluid APIs (specifically
removal of functionality), that's a discussion that needs to start on
the dev level.
Anyone got strong opinions on this one?
