There should also be a way of referring to a use flag owned by either this or another package. For example: <flag name="foo">Enables support for fooing. Ignored unless <flagref name="bar">plugin</flagref> support is enabled for this package and <flagref restrict="app-misc/foo" name="bindings">bindings</flagref> is enabled for <pkg>app-misc/foo</pkg>.</flag> But that's rather ugly... There's probably a nicer way of marking it up using XML. -- Ciaran McCreesh
