The current EAPI 7 draft introduces rmread, rmwrite, rmpredict, and |
2 |
rmdeny in addition to their add* counterparts. |

This looks like a short-sighted solution and I believe that it is |
5 |
going into the wrong direction. It is entangled with the details of |
6 |
the current sandbox implementation. So if new features like network |
7 |
sandboxing should be added later, we'll either need another set of |
8 |
commands for those, or we'll end up with removing the rm* commands |
9 |
again, in favour of a more consistent interface. |

|
11 |
Since the rm* commands aren't urgently needed (the only things that |
12 |
could profit from them are the live eclasses which are a corner case |
13 |
by themselves), I suggest to omit this feature from EAPI 7 and rethink |
14 |
the whole sandbox API for EAPI 8. |
