  We know we don't want a system/header that actually delivers files, as
  that becomes an integration bottleneck.  "-header" seems fine for now.
  If we add a property like

  org.opensolaris.contents

  with a defined set of values (say "header"), it becomes possible to
  automatically generate

  pkg://group/develop/header

  which would make installation of all headers convenient

  We will need to make the series of decisions about use of facets soon.
