Hi everyone,

Portage currently has two hard-coded lists of variables that control
the behavior of env-update.  I'd like to make these variables
configurable so that package maintainers have direct control over
them.  The variables break down into two basic types: colon
separated and space separated.

What is the best way to propagate information about these two
variable types?  For example, we can have a list of variable names
stored in a new variable called "COLON_SEPARATED" that will reside
in either the profiles or /etc/env.d/ itself.  Variable names not
listed in COLON_SEPARATED can be assumed to be space separated.
Does anyone have any ideas to share about how this information
should be propagated?

Zac
