It's a legitimate choice, albeit not a very popular one these days given that disk space is so cheap. Still, the docs variant will get pulled in via default_variants, but users have the option of deselecting it. I think that's a better solution than no variant, and therefore no choice.

I see no reason to complicate things by offering the ability to prevent the installation of these files, especially since a user would have to remember to say "-doc" every time they upgrade this port, since otherwise "default_variants +docs" will reselect the variant.

I suggest he removes emacs, vim and bash-completion variants as they just install a few share/ files.
