You’re not implicitly declaring “A” because it is not a classifier: They
all have at least two parts. In this example:
Topic :: Software Development :: Version Control :: CVS
these implied classifiers may be useful in your application:
Topic :: Software Development :: Version Control
Topic :: Software Development
however, “Topic” alone is not a classifier, and is not very useful
(“this distribution defines one topic”).
Maybe we should provide a module in distutils2 to make useful operations
with Trove classifiers strings.
