>From my side I had no need to discuss, I really like this idea. I mean, I really like this suggestion. Only problem is the FindCONFIG.cmake and FindMODULE.cmake case... If we can find a way how to avoid this problem I'd be all for this solution. Enabling the keywords MODULE and CONFIG only via a policy ? It could warn if the name of the package is one of the known keywords or looks like a version number. Not that nice, but maybe acceptable for those uncommon package names ? Or make the keyword more unique, i.e. longer ? find_package(CONFIG_MODE|MODULE_MODE Foo) Doesn't look that nice, but should be safe enough. Other ideas ?
