I'm doing some work in userland, and have found that some unnecessary attributes are making it through the publication process. In particular, I've seen pkg.linted* and pkg.depend.bypass-generate.
I was thinking that if we expect people to use these attributes, we might want to simply have pkgsend strip them off for you (maybe with an option to turn that behavior off), as otherwise you have to go through another pkgmogrify stage right before pkgsend, which is extra work to put into your makefiles, etc. Another option might be to give pkgsend the ability to read in transforms from one or more files. I think some of us have talked about doing this for pkgrecv anyway (to replace the set-publisher.sh tool RE currently has to use), and in some ways it makes sense for any publication tool. Thoughts?
