 choose what I want to install and I think it is a bit strange to force
 users to suddenly install GPLed variants.
 > you should still be able to disable what you don't want based on
 variants. the goal here is to not disadvantage users who just want to
 install software. they should not have to worry about which variants they
 need enabled. those who want to customize should be the ones doing the
 work imo.

 For that you would need variants, the latest patch added in this ticket
 removes all the variants. To be able to disable all those effectively
 there would need to be +no_feature variants as default variants get pulled
 in during a port upgrade no matter if they had been disabled via the
 "-variant" syntax or not.
