Different people have differing sensitivity to things like this (aesthetics, consistency, etc.). IMHO, this particular one is not a *huge* deal (picking my battles, I personally would not choose to be too vehement on this one), but it's always nice to pick the most elegant/logical way to do things, especially for things that are exposed to the dev/ebuild interface and are hard to change later. -Joe
