And so, we will keep adding more and more options that are not CMake
standard options to the core CMake infrastructure?

I know we've done that for pkg-autotools, but I'm not sure it was such
a great idea. Especially, I'd like to understand where we will stop:
will we, when two packages have common options, move them to the common
infrastructure, even if those options are not CMake standard at all?

At least, I'd like to see what is our "policy" about this, and get some
feedback from other Buildroot developers on this.
