7 GLEP 81 doesn't specify anything about the implementation. In fact,
8 it neither requires that it is implemented via eclasses, nor does it
9 specify any ebuild or eclass variables. So, I'd say that keywording
10 is an implementation detail and doesn't belong in the GLEP.
11
12 Plus, the eclasses explicitly allow KEYWORDS to be overridden by the
13 ebuild:
14
15 : ${KEYWORDS:=alpha amd64 arm arm64 hppa ia64 m68k ~mips ppc ppc64 ~riscv s390 sh sparc x86 ~ppc-aix ~x64-cygwin ~amd64-fbsd ~x86-fbsd ~amd64-linux ~x86-linux ~ppc-macos ~x64-macos ~x86-macos ~m68k-mint ~sparc-solaris ~sparc64-solaris ~x64-solaris ~x86-solaris}
