Hmm, good point. For now I've merely added a TBD to the patch I've already
sent. Right now I can't see how that might be possible without the user
specifying which options cannot be turned on due to tool chain dependencies
(by way of a seeding .config, I suppose).

Given his remark on the community call I did actually try to locate it,
assuming that it had at least "policy" in the title. But I couldn't find
anything in my mailbox.
