11 Your response doesn't really say how ekeyword would deal with already existing
12 _some_random_arch_ as first entry. It can't. And is it worth adding all the
13 logic to ekeyword? You can't rely on that developers are using it all the
14 time. E.g. when I'm doing QA and want to change a keyword, I'm editing the
15 ebuild directly, without using ekeyword. Your first idea, creating a "stable"
16 keyword, is far simpler imho.
