As far as I understand Naram needs he wants to show far less variable
shown by cmake today (including vars coming from find_package(whatever))

Not mentionning the fact that mark_as_advanced makes the variable a CACHE
one which is not necesseraly what you want. You may even want to have a CACHED
variable shown to the user.

Basically I think you (Bill) are right the current "advanced" var
should be enough
but I doubt it correspond to Naram needs. I may be wrong, thus let Naram explain
himself :-)
