My hope would be that if I request the universal variant for port X, then it is recorded in the registry that the universal variant of port X was requested, but the universal variant is not marked as requested for any of X's dependencies, just as the X port itself is marked as requested but its dependencies are not.

That would require 95% of an implementation of general variant 
dependencies, fixing #126. As things stand, +universal added because a 
dependent needs it is a requested variant, and changing that on its own 
would be bad because only requested variants are preserved when upgrading.
