    BTW, what kind of benefit are we looking at?

I agree.  I don't think we should undertake to support more modes of
building just for the sake of supporting them.  Each additional mode
we do support means more work for us in the future.

We should add this if it provides substantial benefit, but otherwise
let's not.
