which of course is a false statement.
If you set port options which then change, Synth will stop and tell
you to reconfigure or remove the saved port options.

Not at all. For example, let's assume I go recommended way and have
options for ports with not default settings. Let's say, I have perl with
default options (no OPTIONS file). Let's say port maintainer adds new
option, [NSA Backdoor]
Perl will be silently compiled with that option, right?

Yes. If you don't explicitly save the options then Synth has no way to detect a change in options.

Isn't poudriere automatically saving the options file when building a new port with default options (i.e. when no options have been specified)? And also, aren't the selected options available in the resulted pkg file, so that synth could look them up there?
