19 I still don't follow why we need new EAPI for this, as presented.
20 What we are talking about here is optional PM behaviour only, and a
21 convention that developers will need to adopt. It doesn't much matter
22 if a PM doesn't implement minor-revision-vdbonly-merging because that
23 PM would just do a full re-emerge same as any other revbump.
24
25 The only need for EAPI change that I can see is to allow non-integer
26 revision values, but that wasn't on mva's list of changes from what I
27 remember. Am I missing something else, here?
