Sure it was. Read the full thread that belongs to the message quoted
earlier: You had announced the EAPI 3 (what later became 4) branch
with the --d-d-t feature, asking council members for comments. Your
message mentioning econf --enable-dependency-tracking was a reply to
leio's question about the feature.

How else should one understand this, if not as a clarification that
overriding the default should be possible?
