We don't use it because it's currently broken (ie, the -variants that  
are selected aren't stored, so when you go to upgrade the port, it  
doesn't keep the same variant selection. Meanwhile, the +variants are  
stored, so things 'work' when you do an upgrade).

That seems like a good idea. You want to submit a patch? :)
