There is one problem at least for this: to apply this method you'd have to
change _all_ the ebuilds in the tree referring to GPL-2 or later when GPL-3
is published, while with GPL-2+ we can start gradually now.
Also it would be more useful for users to know what can be licensed in 2+ and
what requires 2 strictly.
GPL-2+ would need to be a license GROUP however.
Say I approve only GPL-3 packages (cause' I hate patents, and I dislike
having a working system too!). This would encompass anything strictly
GPL-3 and also anything GPL-2+ (which would then be under 3 at my option
in this case).
