Sometimes a bit more granularity in features is nice (i.e. if you
are really watching the kernel size), so when I first read the
new fragment .. that thought came to mind.

But I see more value in having them as a single toggle for some
best practices security options.

This is now merged, and the SRCREV updates will follow soon.
