Huh, you mean you would remove the PROPERTIES token again, after the
version has been stabilised? Why?
Ebuilds could do conditionals like this (again, an example that would
work for app-editors/emacs):
[[ ${PV//[0-9]} == "." ]] && PROPERTIES+="stablecandidate"

I don't understand. Why couldn't PROPERTIES be specified in different
slots?
