Hm. Patch looks okay to me functionality-wise. But style-wise most unsets jump 
into my eye. Perhaps I am just too used to "set(FOO)". But it also seems unset 
is simply not that typical in cmake files in KDE software, see 
http://lxr.kde.org/search?_filestring=%28%5C.cmake%24%29%7CCMakeLists.txt&_advanced=1&_string=unset
The pattern there seems to be to use unset() rather to clean up at the end, 
less to initialize variables at the begin. Which somehow also reflects my 
direct idea of the semantics by the word (even if functional they are identic, 
as far as I got the manual). Having a var unset at the beginning surprises me 
more than setting it to nothing.

The other thing that catches my eyes is that using unset for any cases where a 
var should be empty/not set now means that initialization of helper vars at 
begin of a macro is a mixture of set and unset, resulting in no-longer 
vertically aligned variable names and thus harder to get the list of vars.
See e.g. the macro calligra_define_product:
  set(_product_name "${_product_id}")
  unset(_needed_dep_product_ids)

So having the usage of unset actually in front of my eyes I am undecided if 
deriving from the more common pattern in KDE and having vars not aligned is 
really an advantage, sorry.

What do others think?
