So, as some of you probably saw, I've mostly finished
exherbo-alernatives. All that really needs to be done is add an exlib
to make generating the /etc/alternatives description files easy.

Basically, each package could provide more than one such description
file. Also, this description file should be installed in src_install,
so that config protect and all that jazz takes effect. So, chances are
people will need to do something like:

src_install() {
    default
    make_alternative editor BIN=/usr/bin/vim
    make_alternative vi BIN=/usr/bin/vim
}

Suggestions / ideas on all this?
