and it's a good tradition to keep up. It helps the entire open source
community and not just our users, too.)
Anyway, count the YESs above. Maybe some people want to
comment/explain/defend how they wrote their descriptions, so don't
touch them just yet. :)

The reason the info is there is so that users, like me, know what the
USE flag is for. Me personally, I still think some of them don't help
much and need more info but it is better than it used to be. So, if you
can make them shorter and users still able to figure out what they do,
great. If not, then the info needs to stay. Us users need it.
Thanks.
